“Since I have seen all the 'Rocky' movies, even the recent 'Creed' installments, I was quite eager to see this movie focusing on Chuck Wepner, the guy who was actually the inspiration for Rocky Balboa. Well, eventually, to be honest, it turned out to be a decent watch but not much more than that, I'm afraid. First of all, there was eventually even less boxing than in the actual 'Rocky' movie. To make things worse, in my opinion, his fight with Mohammed Ali felt rather anticlimatic. Basically, the guy didn't do much during this fight, excepting getting beat the sh*t out by Ali and surviving this ordeal for 15 rounds. Another mistake they made was to put too much focus on his relationship with his wife Phyliss played by the alway amazing Elisabeth Moss. In fact, his relationship with Linda tu” read more

Sonuç olarak, seyirlik güzel bir filmdi. Sıkmadan kendini izlettirdi."

Oh it's well-made, sure, and the cast does an excellent job. But Chuck is not at all the type of person you'd want to spend much time with once you get to know him, and so I struggled to feel much sympathy for his plight. It doesn't help either that t"

" DVD- 1hr. 38min. First Viewing As with most modern boxing movies, there's not much that separates Chuck from any other boxing movie; all it can really do is work to hit familiar beats with more energy and pathos than most. Unfortunately, it can't do it; there's some fun moments here and there, and the cast is very strong, but it's just sort of "fine". It's not really a boxing film though, more a film about a boxer; i.e. fame and success are major themes, and the expected downward spiral doesn't"
