Keep Hope Alive

Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2016)

I give this film 8 our of 10 stars because it's a bit predictable at the end BUT I won't spoiler it like some folks on here. That is just rude and I hate when people do that so I won't. Now the film itself is about a light heavy weight champ who's wife gets killed-that's in the trailer by the way so that's NOT a spoiler-and is fighting to get his daughter and life back in order. I liked the acting of Jake Gyllenhaal who really made you feel for Billy Hope. I think he might get an Oscars nomination for Best Actor this year but if Eddie Redmayne gets a nomination for The Danish Girl or Will Smith for Concussion then he won't win. Sorry Jake but crying over your wife dying body isn't going to win you anOscar unless your Tom Hanks or Denzel. But anyways the little girl I really loved her performance she really made you feel so sorry for her because of what she was going through. I saw this film on Redbox so if you want to see a good boxing film, rent it, you'll like it. Trust me.
