Best flick I've seen in a while.
I like movies that are based on true stories. I like boxing. And I like Rene Zellweger. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
I thought the cinematography was very good, so it was a visually appealling movie. Ron Howard shows his class and talent yet again.
And Russell Crowe, with all his reputed faults and character flaws, strikes me yet again as a damn good actor.
Some movies we buy. Some movies we rent.
We bought CINDERELLA MAN. Two bullets up.

My wife said she cried three times. Apparently to her that means it's good. I haven't seen it yet but I likely will.

Do you remember the rating and if I rented it, would it be something a 12 year old could watch? M

I liked it. Typical Ron Howard however, overly gushy and everything handed to you on a platter, but still worth watching.
