Answer 6

Answer 7

1)  Triumph of the Spirit; good movie, though I felt bad for the Greek Jews.  Unlike Polish and German Jews, they were innocent.  Officially, its a holocaust movie, but, its also a boxing movie.  To me, this movie was more tragic than Schindler's List, and I feel far superior.  Its tragedy is rooted in the fact that Greek Jews never harmed anyone; in Greece, the Jews there did not have a reputation for being "jerks" or "mean" or "evil" or "greedy."  Far from it actually.  Tensions with Israel in Greece, is rooted in that Israeli is friends with the Turks, and Greeks do not like Turks.  As for Jews in general, Greece is probably the only country in Europe that never had a problem with them.  Word of warning though; this is by far the most brutal holocaust movie I have ever seen, its very unflinching regarding n**i cruelty.  But it also shows the true nature of an old school boxer's courage.

2) Kings of the Ring, the documentary.  It only goes as far as Tyson though.

3)  Gladiator (no, not the Russel Crowe movie; Cuba Gooding Jr.'s embarassment), still a good movie because its unflinching realism regarding the dangers of the sport.

4)  The Great White Hope; starring James Earl Jones in one of his early roles.  Why is it a good boxing movie?  It shows how emotionally tormented men who take up the sport are, and I personally think its superior to "Raging Bull" which I will not list here.  Raging bull is a bunch of m*******t macho guido bullcrap, but I hardly regard it as a "boxing movie."  And while I feel Raging bull portrays Italian americans with frightening acuracy, in the end the movie blows.

5)  Play it to the Bone; because it shows the other side of boxing, the guys who DON'T make it.

6)  Ali; Will Smith's portrayal of the legend I thought was brilliant, it also demystified the man and humanized him.

7)  Rocky IV, cheesy as it was but, come on now.... even having taken more blows to his head in a single round than most boxers do their entire careers hey, it was still a good movie despite the 80's cheese.

8)  Undisputed.  It should be number one, problem is, the movie brings out the darkside in people, especially men.  Why?  This movie is all about the gleeful fun of watching two men kill each other; easily the most action packed boxing flick ever made.  It was well written, acted, executed and all that but boy was that climactic fight something to watch.

9)  Anapolis.  Okay so its not a boxing film, its a military film, it still had a realistically choreographed boxing fight though.

10)  Rocky III, but only because I ran out of boxing movies I had seen and I needed filler.  That and it has Mr. T in it.
