Having disliked intensely the last four or five movies Meg Ryan,
looks: "Against the Ropes" with some trepidation.
After all, the film has received terrible reviews, both critics and
with members of the IMDb. While boxing is my favorite spectator sport
, I do not like enough to "Pay per View" or HBO. So I went into the film
not know anything about Jackie Kallen or the accuracy of the film.
Maybe that's why I liked "Against the Ropes" both. We appreciate the work could
Ryan, Omar Epps, Charles Dutton, Timothy Daly and, especially
, Tony Shaloub were putting on the screen. That
Dutton directed especially impressed me. The deals with the actors and the camera
very well, has a very good eye for composition and color screen. Ryan's
Midwestern accent is at least as plausible as
Kurt Russell in "Miracle" and "Against the Ropes" is a film more entertaining.
however, the best acting applause go to Tony Shaloub as the weaselly
fight promoter. Relatives only Shaloub with work on "Monk" or
"Wings" are going to see a completely different side of him. It Shaloub
threatening, without the use of violence, that's not so easy to make
as some people might think. The ensemble acting here is even better than "Erin Brockovitch
", disinfected another story, so I fail to see why the film
and was praised this panorama. Despite taps Hollywood
this movie is less predictable than either "Brockovitch" or "
Twelve Monkeys", which both received much better reviews.

"Against the Ropes" I am motivated enough to read of Jackie Kallen
biography.She 's Ryan as a girl, not surprisingly, since it was < br> necessary to get all the attention at all in a "man of sport". she is also 57
(both for children scene, dated "1972" in the beginning) and
was a successful fight analyst before she became a manager (both for
the Secretary shortly. She is also Jewish, three of his gracious champions
paraded around the ring with trunks emblazoned with the Star of David.
Now that the story I would have liked to have seen. However, as
Introduced, "Against the Ropes" is worth at least a "7".
No. I still boxing, but the lady who portrays Meg Ryan
appeared to be women to break the soil as a boxing manager. The film is set in Cleveland
, dare she finds a local black man who seems
have the potential, which receives a retired coach to see your child, and
forming a winner. Tony Shaloub is the best here, as the ruthless
local administrator and boxing promoter who gives his comrades
its blacklist and prevent their boxer from fighting in the local struggles. Tan
she has to take him to places like Buffalo, New York and cities in Florida to win
struggle that finally get a title fight him. A different role for
Meg Ryan, she changed her voice and has to play a "tough" woman. In
the DVD extras, the true lady boxing manager is interviewed and this is a pretty
addition to the story that was inspired by his life, but many
things have changed so it is not really a portrait. The
the film is better than his rating indicating IMDb.
