Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThe director Geroge Tillman Jr didn't want to use a fat suit or visual effects in order to show the transformation Foreman went through from his prime to when he came out of retirement to return to boxing in his forties. The filming was split into two blocks; first to shoot scenes where Foreman is at his prime and later for when he's in his forties. The crew took six weeks off so Khris Davis could bulk up for the latter part of the filming. Davis had pretty strict instructions on how many calories to eat per day, depending on his training regime, but the actor went above and beyond, consuming 7000 calories a day to gain the necessary weight. He went from 225 to 275 in six weeks eventually ending up at around 282.
- GaffesPleasanton, California, where the Job Corps camp is located, is in a valley, nearly surrounded by hills and mountains. There are none to be seen in the film.

Commentaire à la une
I sure learned a lot from this biographical film, and Foreman's story is like one of those fictional underdog Hollywood films, but it's true. It doesn't get much better than that. All casting and performances where excellent, especially Sullivan Jones who emulated Muhammad Ali perfectly. Even though the pacing felt a little slow at times, the 129 min runtime still flew by with the many vast sub-plots that contributed to Foreman's life story. The screenplay had great fluidity and cohesiveness to it, and was very easy to follow, albeit a little reserved. My only complaint was that I felt the action/fight sequences were filmed underwhelmingly, and could've used more dramatics and better choreography. Plus I felt they were a little too short and rushed, and the focus was more on the story than the action. I'm ok with that, because I wasn't expecting a Rocky or Creed film, but the biographical story of a legendary human being, and that's exactly what I got.
