The Brawler

Only if you are a boxing fan would should you consider watching this movie and even then think twice as this movie is god awful. The whole movie is centered around Chuck Wepner and his self-destructive habits. I did not think movies this bad would even be allowed on DVD or streaming, but Hollywood continues to show they have now idea how to make a good movie anymore. Chose something else to watch and this is really not worth your time. But if you insist on watching it, you can scan through the movie quickly as it is such a slow dreary movie you would miss nothing.

Excellent. Never a dull moment. All star cast, Great script and different levels of story telling. We now know why Chuck Wepner is the Real Rocky

This is truly a bad movie. The acting is terrible, the script is terrible, the fights are terrible. I watched maybe 30 minutes of the movie before I gave up. I can't find any good comment to say about that movie.

The question is this: Who was dumb enough to give these amateurs the money to make this horrible movie? To call this a cliche boxing movie would be an insult to all of the cliche boxing movies out there. It's hard to identify all of the individual areas where this movie suffers, because everything about it was bad. If you are an aspiring filmmaker, you'll draw inspiration from this. Because if these filmmakers are capable of making a movie that is prominently featured on Netflix, so can you. To give you an idea of how bad this movie is - one of the actors portrays Sylvester Stallone. This particular actor was a very overweight man with pock marked skin and a heavy east coast accent. I don't mean to be insulting, but he looked nothing like Stallone and it was preposterous to watch. I'm genuinely embarrassed for everyone attached to this project. This movie is about Chuck Wepner, "the underdog who went the distance with Muhammad Ali." The only problem with this point is that Ali TKO'd Wepner in the final round of their 1975 fight. Do your homework, fellas.

Asking his opponent to call him the N word. I'm a pugilist fan, but this film really shows the underside of this dark sport.
