      Audience Member The story of Mexico's most famous boxer of all-time is interesting but not put together as well as you would have liked from first time director Diego Luna. The passion for his subject is present but with a lot of odd choices as far as timing and chronological fluidity Luna loses the attention of viewers trying to figure out what just happened. Fans of the sport of boxing will enjoy the documentary but it won't do much for others. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Diego Luna is a genius for making this movie, Chavez will always be the champ. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Great job from Diego, an amazing heart warming documentary, has some minor flaws but captures an unique essence. i like it Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member The story of this legend should be better presented Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member A very well edited and well researched documentary that all boxing (or JC Chavez) fans should watch. Boxing fans need only apply. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member In his directing debut, actor Diego Luna (Y Tu Mama Tambien, Dirty Dancing: Havannah Nights) did a wonderful job in this insightful documentary that focuses on the boxing career of Mexican great, Julio Cesar Chavez has in addition to very dramatic moments, comic relief from the boxer and those interviewed (Don King and Mike Tyson to name a few...) Very good! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
