Its a very good and well made movie overall. Althought its far from perfect i believe any fan of sports will be able to enjoy it. My main problem with it was that altough it was deep and serious there were many elements that stood out and damaged the atmoshphere. I think crazy freakish looking coach didnt fit the movie at all. He was supposed to be there for guidance but in the end did very little. And when your main protagonist is extremely silent you need charismatic people around him to make the movie more engaging. The fights themselves were also too focused on a single boxing move so they felt kinda silly at times. The overdone slow motion effects didnt help either. On top of that the whole thing was really silent and could have used some music. Also i found the set up for the ending(not the ending itself) pretty underwhelming. I would have hoped for something more special. I would have prefered if they had tried to make this movie super realistic dark and gritty set in modern times rather than the early 20th century but it is still enjoyable and worth a watch.
