“Cinderella Man: To me, this is the best film of 2005 (qualifier: I have not yet seen Walk the Line). Cinderella Man is a terrific film – maybe even a great one. It isn’t flashy, it isn’t brimming with special effects, porn stars, or snappy one-liners. But it is a terrific story, one that you feel good after watching. It’s a slice of the true Golden Age of Hollywood – a solid story about good people that is well-acted by a superb cast. It’s a very family-friendly film – although some of the boxing scenes may be too intense for little ones. I can’t recommend this film highly enough, and am still furious that it was snubbed for the Oscars – then again, perhaps I shouldn’t be. It would be an insult to the movie, the actors, and the writers to nominate this fine film with the dreck they are glorifying this year. Watch this movie. I guarantee you’ll enjoy it.”
