MILLION DOLLAR BABY TRUE MOVIE

Not surprisingly, in the full length shots of the ring action, there is too much punching of gloves and shoulders and I thought the needlessly loud sound effects of blows вЂњlandingвЂќ gave the fight scenes a bit of a вЂњRockyвЂќ cartoon feel.ДЄs far as the gym scenes, the movie and Swank came off a bit better with the fighters. But as an actress playing a boxer she did well, certainly no worse than Stallone in вЂњRockyвЂќ, in fact, I thought she was better than he was.вЂќ Lisa Holewyne thought Swank got the вЂњpassion of a fighterвЂќ just about right, but in the ring, she was more вЂњan actress boxingвЂќ than a вЂњboxerвЂќ. You just donвЂ™t get to be a boxer or even look like one in the relatively short amount of time she had to train five months, thatвЂ™s barely training time for the Golden Gloves.вЂќ Kelsey Jeffries concurred, вЂњI feel she did the best anyone in her position could do.вЂќ Jane Couch offered an analogy that some others have noted, вЂњ did OKвЂ¦it looks like she worked hard to get ready for the role, but I think a real boxer would have looked a lot more realistic in the ring. Did the women see Swank as a вЂњboxerвЂќ or as an вЂњactress playing a boxerвЂ™ ? Was there a discernable difference? Sumya Anani snapped out a jab of an answer, вЂњOf course, I could tell and anyone who knows boxing could tell it wasnвЂ™t вЂ the real deal вЂ. They experience, in вЂњreal lifeвЂќ gyms and boxing rings, all that Swank sought to capture on the screen. Hillary Swank and her performance as вЂњMaggie FitzgeraldвЂќ was of great interest to the four boxers. Eastwood, however, struck just the right cord with Morgan FreemanвЂ™s wonderful voiceover narration of the short story prose of F. I also thought the portrayal of the main characterвЂ™s family went too far into a вЂњtrailer trashвЂќ stereotype and was needlessly ancillary to the primary story line.

Where are they when weвЂ™re fighting?вЂќ Lisa Holewyne thought the movie relied too heavily on stereotypes and thought the film came off, on the whole, as вЂњunrealistic.вЂќД®astwood is a very talented filmmaker but I thought he did go a bit too heavy on the pro wrestling type villain played by real life boxer, Lucia Rijker. Kelsey Jeffries wasnвЂ™t particularly happy with the way the movie depicted the sport, вЂњI suppose you can say it was good for the public to learn more about our sport, but I think they donвЂ™t leave the movie feeling positive, given the dark ending.вЂќ Jane Couch put it in more вЂњreal lifeвЂќ terms, вЂњItвЂ™s crazy, when you fight, none of these people can be bothered to cover the bout, but Hollywood makes their version of our sport and everyone goes crazy. Like most good boxing movies, вЂњMillion Dollar BabyвЂќ is only peripherally about boxing and the filmвЂ™s depiction of WomenвЂ™s boxing, at times, comes up short. They know thereвЂ™s a big difference between вЂњcutвЂќ as in вЂњstop the sceneвЂќ and вЂњcutвЂќ as in вЂњthe ref is going to stop the fight.вЂќ These women know more about the sport of boxing than fifty movie critics of the вЂњtwo thumbs upвЂќ variety and they know it from inside the sport, inside the ring. Kelsey Jeffries holds the IFBA featherweight title and is considered one of the most technically proficient boxers in the sport and is a fighter with the justifiable reputation of going anywhere, any time, to climb into the ring with anyone.

Lisa Holewyne is the GBU welterweight title holder, a former University of Texas pentathlete, who has fought every one of the top fighters in her weight class, some of them twice, as is the case with her two bouts with Anani. Jane Couch is the most acclaimed female boxer in the United Kingdom and the uncrowned IWBF welterweight champion (Couch was stripped of that title as a result of having the temerity to contract an illness as she was preparing for a title defense last December). Sumya Anani is generally considered the best pound/pound fighter in the sport, currently holding the IBA welterweight championship. It was those women I went to for a view of вЂњMillion Dollar BabyвЂќ, a view from the ring. However, in the case of a movie about WomenвЂ™s boxing, I was sure I knew who did know: four women boxers who have toiled a collective thirty years inside the ring and who, together, have won 98 times against the top competition in the sport.
