nick s Well acted drama, if you ignore the floundering action inside the boxing ring. This must have been before stunt doubles were a thing. Not quite sure why our hero was almost bent in half during the fights. Apparently he fought dirty, which I couldn't see on screen, so l suspect he was swinging for the knackers just out of shot. The movie would have been better without the sports broadcasters trying to explain the obvious plot. Some great locations and sets. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews
