I generally save that award for this, which I was forced to watch back in the days when I reviewed films. I am confident it is still the worst film that I've ever seen. It couldn't have tried harder. And missed every time.
Got round to watching this. I agree. There was a lot of Clubber Lang in there to go with the stereotypical Disney storyline. Boxing sequences were very well filmed but felt very sterile. We don't need more in the series now.
I watched that last week, I was really enjoying it, it moved fast and as you said was quite brutal.
I am not sure that I liked the twist though, I'm not sure if that spoilt it for me, but I'm not sure how else they could have ended it (don't want to say top much and give spoilers)
