My good buddy Lakesha says she refuses to see this movie cuz she's a boxing freak and expects that the movie will be unrealistic about the boxing world. She may be right--I don't know.

What I liked about it:
Clint Eastwood gets better the older he gets.
He cries in the movie.
The woman doesn't have a boyfriend--just her boxing and her trainer.

What I didn't like:
ugh, welfare stereotypes. UGH UGH UGH
Fortunately (I guess) the really ugly and offensive welfare stereotypes came far enough along in the movie that I was already caught up in the plot.

ugh, fat stereotypes along with welfare stereotypes. Ugh again. And that mama was nowhere near 312 pounds. More like in the 180-220 range.
