I have a hard time believing this movie is all that good. It looks hella corny in the previews. Rocky Balboa looked arguably worse though and was surprisingly decent so I wouldn't be surprised if it exceeds my expectations. Surely it's better than Southpaw.
If you are a Rocky fan, you'll like this one. Yes, Rocky looks worse, but it fits the role. It seems more realistic in the sense of not wanting to give nothing away.
Southpaw? I thought was a good movie, but it was built more on emotion due to his loss. Yet, I noticed that movie steered clear away from one of the biggest points of the movie...
Murder, but the lead character was more focused on settling it in the ring rather than fight for the justice of his wife. They just seemed to brush off the whole murder like. "Oh, well."
Now that I think about it, I guess that would be realistic in a lot of murder cases now a days LOL!
Ah, whatever. Take it with a grain of salt. If it entertains you, it served it's purpose.
