i remember being angry in the theater at the time

it's such a cheap trick to fool the audience into thinking they're at a boxing movie and then, for no reason -- it's not because of any character flaw of Maggie's that she gets injured during the fight -- turn it into Who's White Trash Life is it Anyway for the last half hour

I had a different feeling ... I remember thinking - wow - this is no boxing movie is it? I guess maybe it hit me differently because of the decision - JenBro Feb 27, 12:36 3
- At no time did I think it was a 'boxing movie'. - kelly Feb 27, 12:46 2
  - not only was it sold as a boxing movie, the first 90 minutes are about nothing but boxing -- nm - moles Feb 27, 13:19 1
    - yeah the marketing was wrong for it. But it's about as much a boxing movie as Black Sawn is a ballet movie. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 13:37
