Ving Rhames and Wesley Snipes costar in UNDISPUTED, as two convicts who end up in the boxing ring together. Snipes got top billing, but oddly enough is relegated to a supporting role along with some very familiar faces including Michael Rooker as head guard and Peter Falk as an inmate who also is the instigator of the match. Rhames gets the bulk of the screen time, and looks pretty imposing as a former boxing champ modeled on Mike Tyson or similar. The match itself is well-choreographed, but there is little else to recommend about this creaky and tired plot. Director Walter Hill, who has given us some great action movies in years past, is obviously over the hill at this point. No pun intended.
