The acting is solid in this tale of a post WWII boxing match, but it is the music and cinematography that make it great. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
"A" for effort. Unmistakable parallels to Malik's "The Tree of Life," but with none of the profundity. A movie this artistically good-looking begs for some nuggets of wisdom beyond fleeting cherry blossoms equaling boxers having short shelf lives. Go to Full Review
