I didn’t know about the last act, going in, but I was still expecting it to be pretty cheesy — I mean, it’s a boxing movie. But it’s very good at what it does; I don’t know that it’s a great movie, but it has lovely moments, and what it sets out to do, it does flawlessly. Even the VO that seems so heavyhanded ends up working. Go see it, it’s good. (1/24/05)
