Best boxing film since 2000?

[Spoken]

I am watching The Fighter again and I’m impressed once again by the complexity for the characters, quality of the story, and the acting. Oddly, the boxing scenes aren’t very good.
But I was thinking about a recent boxing film that was better but nothing struck me. Cinderella Man? Creed?

What’s better than the fighter?

 

[TheRuthlessOne]

Million Dollar Baby I guess

I have never seen it

 

[Ablis89]

I really enjoyed Crying Fist

Absolutely loved Cinderella Man. Really the only one that stands out as a favorite.


Other new ones are like South Paw, Bleed for this. There is also the Ali movie. Can't really think of anything else.

I came in here to say the fighter. The fight scenes aren't so great but everything else around it is so good, especially christian bale's role. I wouldn't put any of the others above it since 2000.

Creed was good too, million dollar baby also but i think it's over rated. Southpaw and hands of stone were a let down. The fighter is better than all of them.

agree. South Paw was alright. Bleed for this wasn't bad, but I thought Hands of Stone wasn't a good film at all. Creed is fun, but it's fun as rehashed Rocky, not as a "higher" film, if you will.

I havent seen million dollar baby since it came out. I might rewatch that sometime

Love the topic. I'll go Cindarella Man as that's probably my favorite boxing film yet. Great movie.

 

[LHWBelt]

Creed was probably the best Rocky type movie since the first Rocky movie.

Snatch.

The Fighter and Cinderella Man. Million Dollar Baby was pretty awful.
