This movie was far more than I expected. Good story, good acting and great casting. I expect Samuel Jackson to be nominated for an Oscar for his performance. It was a very refreshing movie in today's movie market.

Excellent. Very well done. A powerful story about truth and about life. Worth the time; it will move you.

A very touching movie that deals with the inner dialougue of boxers and the intimate relationships they keep with each other with mutual respect for their opponents. A young journalist seeking his career advancing blockbuster story is taken by a man who claims who he is not, with the young mans best wishes at heart he places him in a compromising position with his family and friends after the article is published. A good film to see once as the message is director makes the message clear enough not to need to view the film again. The overall message of the film is: be careful who trust and research everything. Never jump the gun just because it looks like it will make you hero, in Resurrecting The Champ, the gun was shooting blanks for the young oblivious journalist. Overall an excellent performance by the lead and supporting actors, worth watching 100%.

I find it very upsetting that just one week after opening that many theatres in my area are either pulling this movie or are only showing it once per day at some very off time. What gives? This is a very good movie for adults to see. Great acting skills and a good story where you will pay attention all the way through. I guess it's all a big game of $$$ and payoffs. Something is sure wrong. When theatres run total trash and pull the good movies maybe it's time to just stay home. GRRRRR

First of all, I thought this was a movie about boxing, so I was not really excited to go. In fact it was a movie about wanting success...and what people are willing to attempt to have success. I left the movies thinking that this was one of the best movies I have seen in a long itme. The acting was wonderful. Remember this is based on a true story!!!
