Reviews (2)
An average boxing drama that has the value and qualities of the most average pint of beer draft at your favorite pub.
()
It's a boxing movie, so I'll be kind, but still, it's more on the average side than anything else. Roberto Durán is certainly an intriguing character, but in this portrayal, he simply comes off as a naughty child who straightened up, or rather, as someone who had their issues and resolved them. Robert De Niro is fine, but otherwise, nobody really excels.
