Two features. Director Ron Howard and star Russell Crowe re-team in 'Cinderella Man' after their Oscar-winning collaboration, A 'Beautiful Mind'. It's the true story of boxer James J. Braddock (Russell Crowe), a heavyweight contender from New Jersey nicknamed the Bulldog of Bergen, who lost his fame and fortune during the Great Depression only to win the hearts of the downtrodden during a spectacular comeback. Crowe is masterful as Braddock, with Renee Zellweger playing his wife, and Paul Giamatti as his loyal friend and manager, Joe Gould. The sharply observed script devotes a significant amount of screen time to the domestic struggles of Braddock's family; developing character and place with a wealth of period detail, so when the comeback starts, the payoff is enormous. The matches themselves are unforgettable: raw, intense, riveting, with more than a passing stylistic nod to Martin Scorsese's groundbreaking 1980 film, 'Raging Bull'. Though it may sound a bit formulaic, one should remember that this is the true and original underdog boxer story from which all others hail, and it's riveted together with true craftsmanship. Howard has a real skill for plucking audience members' heartstrings, and the performances are first-rate. Giamatti and Crowe play off each other in a rapport perfectly suited to their roles, especially at the ring, where the one's manic intensity makes a perfect contrast to the other's warrior grace. Also includes 'Hurricane'.

Entertainment Weekly
There's not another actor working in the movies today with Crowe's kind of gravitational pull to authenticity
New York Times
Out of the ring and opposite Mr. Giamatti, Mr. Crowe eases into the boxer's soft side, at times beautifully; in the ring, he's repulsively believable
The Daily Star
The best boxing movie since Raging Bull
The Mirror
This is a favourite to win big at the Oscars
The Sun
A total knockout
Uncut
Russell Crowe is rugged and resilient....It's a solid picture...
Variety
...Washington delivers a soaring, intense performance, arguably the richest in his impressive career...
