If you enjoy fight films and are tired of people trying to out-glamour each other, this is a good one to try. It's consistently fun, and it's intentionally loaded with classic fight-film stuff which, for those who realize it's intentional and not a cop-out, gets increasingly funnier as each typical bit plays out. It's not trying to reinvent anything or sell itself on a ludicrous amount of pretty faces, and the characters are a lot of fun to watch and I appreciate it hugely for these things. Anybody giving this film less than five stars is trying too hard to be critical.

Highly recommend this fantastic British made movie. Classic lighthearted fun, gave us a good giggle and was quite moving in parts. Amazing cast, they were all brilliant. Loved the storyline, thoroughly enjoyed it. Can't wait to see what the writers come out with next.

Wonderful, witty, heartwarming, feel good film. Great performances all round. Depicts the loss of community and how, now more than ever, we need to bond together and keep connected with love. Fight for what you believe in!! Truly uplifting. Loved it.

Enjoyed watching this entertaining movie. Found Bradley Moore to be a very natural actor.

Absolutely loved this film. I watched this as I'd seen Golden Years and really enjoyed it. I'm a sucker for a Brit-flick and this fits the bill perfectly. The story is uplifting and simple in its concept, with a great cast it really pulls you along willing the hero to achieve his goal and get the girl. It's a real Friday night flick pleaser, if you watch this and are thirsty for more then I definitely recommend Golden Years. Downside? Let me know if you find one, because I didn't!!!

What a fantastic watch, watched it with a group of friends & everyone laughed all the way through it. As for the cast some legendary & some up & coming stars to look out for in the future. The storyline was well written as well, will highly recommend to everyone of all ages .

Such a nice easy watch, good story line and easy to follow, sometimes you just want to watch a lighthearted film that doesn't test the brain to much and this is it. Definitely worth a watch.

Rocky meets The Full Monty. This British comedy drama has some good character actors. Ricky Tomlinson, Paul Barber and Alexei Sayle. It is let down by a banal script that mistakes silliness for comedy. Doug (Brad Moore) plays a once promising boxer. Now he is managing a boxing gym which has debts that he cannot pay. Some fight club type posh boys are pressurising him especially as one of the old geezers in the boxing club knocked one of them out. One day Vera (Denise Van Outen) comes to his gym wanting Doug to train his son. When the money pressure gets too much for him, Vera who is a gypsy wants Doug to get her dim brother in shape for a £100,000 bare knuckle fight. This would enable Doug to pay off his debts but the brother has to win the contest and these types of fights get dirty very quickly. The film has too many broadly sketched caricatures. Posh boys who think they are hard, Irish, gypsies. It feels dated and lazy.
