Title: Not For Real Boxing Fans
Review: I saw this when it came out in the movie theatres because I'm a big fan of boxing and used to box, light heavy, in my younger days. Hilary Swank as a boxer? Yea, sure. It just didn't cut it with me. Women's boxing is not a serious sport, more like professional wrestling than boxing. This film would have been much better if Clint Eastwood trained a male character. Then you could take it seriously. By the end of the flick, when Clint Eastwood kills Hilary Swank with a lethal injection because she is paralyzed and want's to die, it gave mercy killing a new meaning. Mercy of the viewer for bringing this joke of a movie to an end and letting us out of the theatre. I doubt the people giving this flick good ratings know much about boxing.
