One time was enough...

Rating: 9/10 (19 June 2011)

There are those movies, so good that they force you to laugh hysterically, make you sit on the edge of your chair, let you crawl under a blanket, eat your nails, or cry like a child. "Million Dollar Baby" is one of the latter ones, and for me it's a rare thing to cry indeed.(Only equaled by "The Hours" Perhaps.) Who would want to tape the last few hours in the life of a family member, and want to see him or her dying over and over again? It's like that for me with this movie. I've rarely felt a pain of such magnitude after watching a movie. That is the reason why I don't want to see this film again. It's a fantastic movie, don't get me wrong, but if you decide to watch it, don't be surprised to get knocked in the stomach by an iron fist.
