This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Surprisingly good

I wouldn't have thought that I'd enjoy a boxing movie, but this was actually enjoyable and viewable all the way through -- without ever becoming outstanding.

Harrelson and Banderas play off each other well as best friends who are thrown into a Mike Tyson undercard, and the interplay with the communal love interest Grace [Davidovich] really developed the characters in a short space of time.

Sizemore and Wagner make cameos as the promoter and financier of the fight, and an array of famous people make appearances as ringside guests at the big fight.

Possibly the best performance was from the ever excellent Lucy Liu, in a role that was a fantastic parody of itself. Good fun.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 10/10 Simply Flawless

'Play It to the Bone' is underrated and definitely underseen. It's just fun to watch. In fact this movie is perfect. The cast, the acting, the direction, the story, are all perfect.

You see, nowadays we are used to these super-productions with uncontrollable budgets, that they are ultimately nothing too special. To me 'Play It to the Bone' is a work of art a lot more important than 'Phantom Menace' or 'Lord of the Rings-whichever part'.

Furthermore 'Play It to the Bone' is actually one of the best boxing movies. And the celebrity cameos are nice.

This movie has got humor, suspense, a solid story and substance. I have seen it many times occasionally on TV and it still feels fresh every time I watch it.… Expand
