Good acting performances in a strong story. The movie is as grey as the war it depicts, which is also one of it's weaknesses.

Slow moving and highly charged... both Lewis and Watson are incredible actors. Much of the boxing action was very well done, but I doubt the story will stay with me long

My least favorite of the 3 Sheridan/DDL collaborations but it is still pretty great. I'm really interested in the religious conflict in Ireland though so I am a biased watcher. DDL immerses his body and soul once again to create one of the most natural looking boxers ever.
