Good movie, not particulary exciting, but as the story developed, I got more and more involved into the characters and was curious what was going to happen next and what decisions the characters were going to make. And again, Samuel does an excellent performance. For me he's becoming one of the best actors of this decade. His roles are spread over such a wide spectrum, I cannot think of one film where I didn't enjoy his role.

If anyone likes Samuel L. Jackson as much as they claim to they should see this film because it is the most he has disappeared into a character in quite some time as opposed to be Samuel L. Jackson as Coach Samuel L. Jackson or something to that effect. I'm also a sucker for fractured father-son relationships and moreover the burdens carried and shadows cast by the name we call our own.

Not bad.

Yeah this was horrible. Samuel Jackson's stupid character voice makes me want to watch the movie on mute, but I worry that if I mute it I might just fall asleep. I thought this was a boxing movie yet very little boxing was done in it unless you want to see a drunk hobo fight some college kids. Best role might have been that little kid who cried during show and tell. How the heck did they convince Alan Alda to be in this. Hartnett's ugly movielife continues to be TKO'd by flicks like this.
