There's scarcely a boxing-movie cliche left unrecycled by the end of From Mexico With Love, an inaptly titled and thoroughly predictable indie drama directed by vet stunt coordinator and fight choreographer Jimmy Nickerson.

Whatever its surface predictabilities, From Mexico With Love has the virtue of coaxing you to care about its people.

I think it was a pretty good movie. I love Boxing movies. When he learned to box it got better. Good actors. I really enjoyed this movie.

This movie offers nothing - too predictable story plus Kuno Becker once again plays a guy fighting for his dreams - this time for money. Maybe boxing visuals aren't bad but as long as there's nothing else to see I don't think it's worth seeing at all.
