Don't rent this farce

Rating: 1/10 (17 July 2005)

85% of this movie was Brilliant. The ending was the saddest, sickest farce imaginable. Assisted Suicide was not an option for the fighter with "the most Heart of anyone that Freeman had ever seen". Only a member of the Academy, or their secretary, could have fallen for this tripe. Ulcers? Not gonna happen, these days. Dopamine murder? After ruining the lives of so many other fighters, he wants to kill the best fighter he has ever trained? Please. The ending was THE reason that this movie was made, in the first place. The writer was trying to sway people to support Euthanasia with a sweet story of a great kid who came from a trailer and climbed to the TOP of the world. Should Christopher Reeves' wife put dopamine in his IV?
