During the Great Depression, common-man hero James J. Braddock (Russell Crowe), aka the Cinderella Man, was to become one of the most surprising sports legends in history. By the early 1930s, the impoverished ex-prizefighter was seemingly as broken-down, beaten-up, and out-of-luck as much of the rest of the American populace who had hit rock bottom.

During the Great Depression, common-man hero James J. Braddock (Russell Crowe), aka the Cinderella Man, was to become one of the most surprising sports legends in history. By the early 1930s, the impoverished ex-prizefighter was seemingly as broken-down, beaten-up, and out-of-luck as much of the rest of the American populace who had hit rock bottom. His career appeared to be finished, he was unable to pay the bills, his family--the only thing that mattered to him--was in danger, and he was even forced to go on Public Relief. But deep inside, James J. Braddock never relinquished his determination. Driven by love, honor, and an incredible dose of grit, he willed an impossible dream to come true. In a last-chance bid to help his family, Braddock returned to the ring. No one thought he had a shot. However Braddock, fueled by something beyond mere competition, kept winning. Suddenly, the ordinary working man became the mythic athlete. Carrying the hopes and dreams of the disenfranchised on his shoulders, Braddock rocketed through the ranks until this underdog chose to do the unthinkable: take on the heavyweight champ of the world, the unstoppable Max Baer (Craig Bierko), renowned for having killed two men in the ring.
Leave your thoughts about Cinderella Man.
| Modamag.comSusan GrangerAs of May, 2005, this Depression-era drama is the Best Picture of the year - with flawless acting and production values. It's a must-see! |
| Freeze Dried MoviesBrian JuergensAs touching, thrilling, and inspiring as they come - and a welcome return to the kinds of films that make you leave the theatre feeling better than when you entered. |
| VarietyRobert KoehlerAn exquisite ode to a working-class hero, Cinderella Man takes the almost impossibly perfect elements of the saga of underdog boxer James J. Braddock and fills it with emotional gravitas, wrenching danger and a panoramic sense of American life during the Great Depression. |
| The Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenRon Howard and Russell Crowe bring the Braddock story to vivid life in a superbly acted, beautifully shot, highly engaging drama that ranks as one of Howard's best efforts. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleAn unflinching and historically rich rendering of an amazing story. He has made what is easily the best American film so far this year. |
| USA TodayMike ClarkA premier boxing movie and a forceful Depression remembrance for the socially conscious, Cinderella Man also ices it for stargazers that Russell Crowe is the dominant screen actor working today. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittIn sum, the classical Ron Howard and his splendid cast have made a spellbinding movie that joins "Million Dollar Baby," as well as "Raging Bull," the first two "Rocky" pictures, and "Fat City" as one of boxing cinema's all-time heavyweight champs. |
| Philadelphia InquirerCarrie RickeyCinderella Man is not a movie about boxing, but about this boxer who personified the heart and hope of 1935. |
| Dallas ObserverRobert WilonskyAt last, his (Howard's) first great (and filling) movie--inspirational, yes, but far from hokey; moving, absolutely, but never saccharine; and gripping, despite its being a fixed fight. |
| Arizona Daily StarPhil VillarrealProves that there's always room on the shelf for another riveting, elegant boxing film. |
