Review by John Renfro (posted on 15-Feb-2005)

I don't throw around the word "masterpiece" very much, but this movie more that qualifies. It is much more than a "boxing movie", it is a love story and tremendous study of human nature and courage. I was disappointed, before I saw this movie that Clint Eastwood was nominated for Best Actor over Paul Giamatti in Sideways. Now those feelings have evaporated in the sheer brillence of this great movie. Go see it!
