What's not to like?? Let me tell you . . . SPOILER

Rating: Null/10 (28 February 2005)

First of all, character development beyond boxing is so weak.
Second of all, it's not overly convincing that Maggie Fitzgerald really had to overcome very much or struggle at all to become a great boxer . . . she just knocks everybody out all the time up until that championship fight?? C'mon . . . not buying it - especially when she's facing fighters with way more experience than she had.
Third of all, the entire rest of the movie after the accident . . . health care costs seemed to be of no object or worry to her - so why doesn't she get better care and treatment? Doctors and nurses don't just allow paralyzed patients' legs to turn gangrenous to the point of no return . . . and then just deciding to give up on life?? Just quitting?? I don't know about that, I feel like it contradicts the attitude of the whole prior two-thirds of the movie, thereby ruining the entire thing for me . . . AND, Clint Eastwood wouldn't just be allowed to roam into a hospital ward in the middle of the night . . . death by suffocation would not be as simple and mild as merely "falling asleep" . . .the moment her heart rate flat-lined, nurses would have rushed into the room trying to revive her -All factors combined make this film totally unbelievable . . .
