Movie: Southpaw

Post by hlniv »



Jake Gylenhall is a boxer. Rachel MacAdams is the love interest. Forest Whitaker appears to be a coach.

And the second trailer for this movie ends showing Jake Gylenhaal throwing a right handed punch.

I am confused

Yes it is. Maybe I was looking in the mirror. My reality became disconnected and that confuses me.

It did not appear to be a sequel to million roller baby, no. She died, Ruddo.

Let's all rank boxing movies.

1. Ali
2. Rocky
3. Rocky Balboa
4. Grudge Match
5. Raging Bull (Haven't seen this in years; might be due for a rewatch.)
6. Champion
7. Cinderella Man (I haven't seen this since it first came out, though.)
8. The Fighter

I would say I like all of those except The Fighter.

I feel like the wrong word is emphasized in this sentence.

Wasn't counting documentaries, by the way; otherwise Tyson would have been #1.
