Bokser

The best film i've seen in a long time. I came across it randomly on Netflix this morning and i'm so glad I did. I normally avoid foreign films but I've never seen a bad boxing film so I thought id give it a try. I know is a genre that's been extensively covered and I've watched all the classics from Rocky to Hurricane to Cinderella man, Raging Bull, Creed ect ... but I can honestly say this might be my favorite of the lot.

The power of the story feels like a true story. Really don't get how this isn't rated a lot higher it was emotionally gripping from start to finish. Normally with sports films its a written cliche rags to riches and they all live happily ever after - this is not that film, this is raw to the point you feel the pain of all the characters at different points in the film. It feels far more authentic. Brilliant film.

"Boxer" has its moments but ultimately feels a bit stretched, clocking in at a runtime that could have been trimmed. The story holds promise, but the lead actor's performance falls flat, lacking the depth necessary for a compelling protagonist. However, the main actress shines with a captivating performance that adds some much-needed real emotions to the film. Unfortunately, the boxing scenes miss the mark; they're filled with unrealistic, wide haymakers that no professional would throw, undermining the sport's authenticity. Overall, while there are highlights, "Boxer" fails to deliver a knockout punch.

Who also had an uncle who was a coach, was also a Polish champion, emigrated at a similar time and had a similar relationship with his wife. At the beginning of his emigration he also couldn't find a job and when he did fight they gave him weak opponents (supposedly). His private life was also similar to the film (he broke up with his wife and later got back together) and eventually he also returned to Poland. Apparently he didn't agree for the film to be his biography because he wouldn't have come out well in it, but it's hard to believe that the scriptwriters didn't communicate with him. I think this is the true story of boxing in Germany then and maybe now.

As a non Polish speaker I really enjoyed this movie with subtitles. It was one of the rare movies that was interesting from beginning to end! The way the story came out kept me always on the edge of my seat! Highly recommended & I would love for more movies like this from a Polish film perspective. I felt that also it was uniquely filmed & it left me with a strong feeling! As someone who loves sports movies I can say this isn't limited to just sports. The theme goes far deeper with relationships, love, deep emotion, and the human struggle! The rawness and nothing to hold back attitude of the movie was simply amazing! And lastly I want to say the actors did a fantastic job especially the leading roles! Makes me interested in the Polish movie industry which I didn't expect. Just watcher this because I saw it from Netflix and was left happily surprised with the movie!
