  The best movie you've never heard of
Review created: 01/17/06

For some reason Cinderella Man flopped at the box office. I didn't even really know about it until I watched the DVD. For the most part I really like Russell Crowe, and this film definitely adds to his growing collection of great movies.

This true story is about a boxer named Jim Braddock who is in the prime of his career right as the Great Depression hits. His family quickly goes from living the high life to living in the slums as work becomes scarce and times get difficult trying to feed his family and keep them healthy and happy.

It's a very human story and it will not disappoint. Renee Zellweger plays Russell Crowe's wife and does a really nice job. This movie is directed by Ron Howard and lives up to his standards of a very fine film.

this was a brand new item as advertised, the film itself is a great story of a forgotten boxer back in the days of the depression just after the crash of '29. my folks went thru that time period as kids and grew up with that instilled in them, to see the same thing happening with today's economic problems is earely similar right now. it gives us insight as to what is waiting for us if we dont get this under control and quickly

The first time me and my boyfriend watched this movie we really liked it. We watched it three times before we took it back to the movie rental store. Everytime we wanted to watch it on tv we would always miss it. Either catch the ending of it or miss it completly. Now we can watch this great movie when ever we want.

Loved the movie! Russell Crowe plays James Braddock in this portrayal of the real life boxer which takes place during the Great Depression. Renee Zellwegger plays Mrs. Braddock, and does a very solid job. The movie has some excellent boxing exchanges, but it's so much more than a boxing movie. It's a movie that reaccounts the trials and hardships that not only James Braddock had to overcome, but the Country as a whole. I enjoyed this movie from beginning to end. This is a movie that both men and women would enjoy.

Russell Crowe is one of my favorite actors. He should have won an Award for his portrayal of this famous boxer. I only buy dvds that I want to see again and I got this one at a fair price.

Russell Crowe, Renee Zellweger & Paul Giamanti all soar in this film about late depression era boxer James J Braddock who became America's great hope through the depression. Good movie for both the guys and their gals.

Review created: 01/04/08

You go Russell Crowe! Bought this for my soon to be daughter in law for Christmas. Since I bought it used and already opened, I decided to watch it, as I had not seen it. It is a great movie, I love real life stories. My sons girlfriend apparently feels the same as she had requested I buy it for her as a Christmas present.

This would have to be the best movie EVER made! It gives you a true insight on how bad people had it when Hoover was president! and how you can make people rich and they will turn there backs on you when you need them the most even though if it wasnt for you.. they wouldnt have what they do have!!

Review created: 07/07/06

One of the best movies produced in the last two decades - wonderful acting (despite Russell Crow's real life behavior) and the script and scenes were totally realistic and believable. It gave those of us too young to remember the great depression years an insight into just how bad things were during those times.

I recently saw this movie and it was great. I am a Boxing fan but you don't even have to be one to enjoy this movie. It tells a great story which is even true. Great to see the family bond through the struggles of life to overcome it all.

  Cinderella Man - A True Classic !
Review created: 06/29/06

I can't help myself to give this DVD a five on five. This is one of the best movies I have ever watched in my whole life! The story is catchy, interesting, the story is sad, and the overall performance is awesome!

I got to give Russell Crowe a hundred on a hundred in his performance. He really lived the life of Jim Braddock, the boxer in the movie and in real life that Russell Crowe relived. You can sincerely see that the movie was an exact replica of his life.

The whole DVD is about the life of a boxer and his family in the olden days. IT goes from normal days, to the great depression and I won't ruin the movie for you. I suggest you buy this DVD for any price even if you hate movies with a passion!

  Better than I expected! An Inspiring Story! See it!
Review created: 06/08/06(updated 06/08/06)

Cinderella Man is one of the best films of 2005. It is based on a true story about a boxer named James J. Braddock (who was injured and down on his luck) during the Great Depression. Braddock was a heavyweight contender from New Jersey (nicknamed "the Bulldog of Bergen") who lost everything and then staged a great comeback that inspired a nation to believe in the miracles.

It was directed by Ron Howard and starred Russell Crowe. They previously worked together on the Oscar-winning movie, A BEAUTIFUL MIND.

This movie is a little slow at times but overall, it is a great movie with strong performances especially by Russell Crowe. It's one of those against-the-odds, underdog stories that tugs at your heart and brings a smile to your face. It's a good boxing film. I liked that it showed how people struggled to survive during the Great Depression. That was such an awful time in American history. I highly recommend this film. This movie is really worth watching.

If you like sports movies such as Any Given Sunday, Cool Runnings, Major League, Ice Princess, The Replacements, 61, Unnecessary Roughness, A League of Their Own, The Cutting Edge, Wildcats, Raging Bull, Rocky, etc. then, you will probably like this one.

At first I wasn't going to see because of the title. My father told me it is one of his favorite movies. I LOVE IT!!! I wish more men were like James J. Braddock. Both Russell & Reneii's acting was outrageous. If you haven't see this move then go out & see it. I real tear jerker.
