Wow! and holy Cow

Rating: 9/10 (2 October 2015)

You know, i have been putting off this title over and over again. It hit Netflix and i saw that Morgan "god" freeman was in it and thought why not. I figured i would turn it off after 20 min because i don't like boxing and didn't like raging bull. Rocky was fine but people hitting each other for sport.. No.
The movie started and i was hooked. Right from the beginning i knew it wasn't just about boxing. The Character progression was fantastic. The theme worked on so many levels. The movie really showed the good and bad about what the word "family" really means. The The last 3/4 of the movie had me 2 inches from the screen and almost in tears.
Just watch it. Wasn't what i expected and glad it wasn't. Loved it!!
