Surprisingly Entertaining
20 February 2004
I watched an advanced screening of Against the Ropes last night. I wasn't expecting much and I had seen some negative reviews on here already. But upon seeing the movie, it was actually pretty good. It had its funny moments and the story started off well. I think it suffered towards the middle when the story switched to Kalleen's addiction to the spotlight. I thought it made the story a bit boring and would've liked to have seen it concentrate more on Omar Epps and Meg Ryan's relationship and title conquest.

Overall, it was a decent movie and the crowd actually was into it and enjoying it. I was entertained. ***out of ****
