I'm going to see this on Sunday.

Do you reckon it will be any good?

Apparently in the boxing scenes the actors are really going for it. Hope so, because it was quite apparent in the Rocky movies that they weren't making contact.

Will Smith did 10 months training before filming began, but I guess he would have had to, as I always saw him as being quite lanky, where Ali was nowt like that.

Anyway, I'll let you know my opinion on Monday.

I've heard that Smith is very impressive in the film, and is more serious than in his normal comedic roles. Here's a tip: go in expecting very little, and you should be very surprised, unless the film is an absolute stinker, that is. What certificate is it? I might go and see it too, pending the age rating. Cheers. Shaun.

I been waiting for this one. I wanted to go either tonight or some time in half term, but the tiny cinema near me doesnt have it on.

What rating is it? I still havent heard.

Excellent, so I've heard. Smith has got a Golden Globe nomination, and is favourite, for best actor. That is reflective of what the Oscars will be. So must be good.

I found out that it is 15. I also saw that it isnt out until the 22nd of feb (same day as state of emergency) but it says that this is subject to change.

Is it out or not? I saw a bilboard for it the other day which said out friday. This was last saturday, so I thought it was out today.

It's directed by Michael Mann, whose name actually gets a larger font size than Will Smith's on some posters for the film. He directed Heat which rocked. So it might be quite good.

If you want a good recent boxing film though, go for Girlfight, it's about a girl boxer but it's a damn good film, and Michelle Rodriguez is amazing in it.

Ultimately, though, Raging Bull owns all other boxing films.

I think it will be good, coz it hasn't been hyped up too much, and has a good actor as main character and a good director
