Title: Ali Lacks the Punch
Review: I went to see Ali with great anticipation based on the trailers and behind the scenes television spots. I am almost fifty years old and grew up following Ali's amazing career and life.I'm not sure what Michael Mann was attempting to capture, but I feel he missed in all areas. The story doesn't really go anywhere. It just sort of rambles. It spends far too much time on musical montages. One scene of Ali doing road work in Africa just seems to go on and on and on.The casting is a real plus. Will Smith captures Ali better than anyone (short of Ali himself). Jon Voigt almost steals the picture with a remarkable performance as Howard Cosell. Jamie Foxx and Mario Van Peebles round out an excellent cast. Unfortunately their not given a very good story to work with.I recommend you rent "When We Were Kings". A documentary about the real "Rumble in the Jungle" starring the actual participants."Ali", I'm afraid is a waste of time.
