Ausgewählte Rezension

9/10

Engrossing look at three young adults who try to turn their lives around through boxing.

On the Ropes does for boxing what Hoop Dreams did for basketball except in half the time. The film is primarily about how boxing and being part of the extended family of the gym helped three young adults turn their lives around and how, by guiding his proteges, their trainer and mentor also has found a niche and redemption for himself. You do not have to like or even be interested in boxing to enjoy this film. I would love to be able to see the sequel and follow everyone a few years from now.
