Leave your thoughts about Phantom Punch.
| User ReviewBruno LSurprisingly good. I was especially impressed by the performance of Ving Rhames. Its entertaining and it gives a good view of Sonny Liston's life. |
| User ReviewNeopolitana BA true story on the life and death of the famous boxer Sonny Liston. Beautifully portrayed and loved the ending on his this legendary boxers controversial death which remains an unsolved mystery till date! |
| User ReviewRico FViews the underground part of the sports world!! |
| User Reviewroger tReal powerful. Sonny Liston was as tough as they came. |
| User Reviewdavid gYou will easily become attached to Rhames addaptation of Liston. Terrific movie |
| User ReviewJordon JPhantom Punch delivers some knock out scenes outside the ring as well as within it.But it steers down a path of filmmaking that isn't very grand but being a straight to dvd film i can't complain good story & decent acting SEE IT!!! |
| User ReviewJustin TThe movie has good intentions but comes up short |
| User Reviewlion othis movie could have been done so much better. the story is great, as it is in the boxing history books as one of the darkest days in boxing. Sonny Liston takes a dive (u can aruge that, Ali's punch was so quick u just don't know) in the rematch with Cassius Clay. Then his death is still a mystery, shocking for a man that was in prison and then to become the Champ. Great Legacy of one of the top punchers in the sport |
| User ReviewNorman DThe true story of Sonny Liston will leave a sour taste in your mouth - cheap direction, laughable boxing action, poor acting (neither Ving Rhames nor Nicholas Turturro can carry a movie of this magnitude) and dialogue that doesn't quite fit the time period...he deserved so much better than this. |
| User ReviewEric HThis movie...well not so good. Ving Rhames is great as usual. Problem is he may be a tad old for the role, plus he didn't have much to work with here. A lot of what we know about Sonny was historically inaccurate or missing. No harassment from Ali(a young Cassius Clay) before, or after the Patterson rematch. Ali (Clay) made Liston's life hell for over a year before their first fight. No scene detailing Sonny slapping Ali's face in a casino. Not even a mention of his first fight against Marty Marshall. Liston suffered a broken jaw in the fourth round before losing a close 8-round decision. But you wouldn't know it from this film.Just pass on this film. |
