Mickey Rourke in Homeboy was good. Snake eyes isn't really a boxing film, the boxing parts are really shite.

Spike of Bensonhurst is a really good boxing film and you really should put Rocco and his Brothers up there as it is more of a boxing film than 'Annapolis' More of a boxing film than 'The Champ'

Good film, good solid performances but deserves nowhere near the praise it gets.

I really enjoy The Geat White Hype

they should have padded Terry Conklins record with 20 knockovers to add more inrigue, but its great fun all the same

Snake eyes is no more a boxing film than Oceans 11 was. Both have a fight going on in a casino (Lewis & Klit in O11) but they aren't about boxing.
