Oh, yeah, that was a real rollercoaster ride! Extremely catchy and action-packed camerawork; I rate the trendiness of this movie highly. Everybody in the movie theater enjoyed this from start to finish. It doesn’t deserve a full set of stars, but this movie about a young boxer, love and complicated relationships with his father and friends is well worth watching, especially on the big screen.
