Review |
Million Dollar Baby | 2004 | 94 | 1 | - The characters are a little formulaic, but the acting gets better as the movie progresses and, like Maggie Fitzgerald on Frankie Dunn, 'Million Dollar Baby' grows on you to the point where you love it. |
Bleed for This | 2016 | 91 | 2 | - Miles Teller and Aaron Eckhart are nothing short of sensational! |
Cinderella Man | 2005 | 90 | 3 | - It's not as good as Rocky...it's BETTER. If you don't feel anything during the film's climactic boxing sequence, you're dead on the inside. |
Fighter, The | 2010 | 89 | 4 | - Christian Bale is nothing short of phenomenal in this movie. If for no other reason, watch it to watch him. |
Undefeated | 2011 | 89 | 4 | - A real-life 'Friday Night Lights'. |
Creed | 2015 | 84 | 6 | - There are boxing sequences that have you dipping and diving with every punch, whether or not you are watching it in 3D. |
Southpaw | 2015 | 84 | 6 | - Jake Gyllenhaal, as his character is in the ring, is the real star here with a truly dynamic performance! |
Raging Bull | 1980 | 80 | 8 | - In some ways, it's one of the saddest stories ever put on the big screen. |
Rocky | 1976 | 69 | 9 | - A bit overrated if we're being completely honest. |
Grudge Match | 2013 | 47 | 10 | - Like it's two AARP card-carrying leads, this action-comedy comes up lame. And the usual bad-movie-saving Kevin Hart is only further a part of the problem here. |
