bad bad movie, 6 July 2001
Author: ericphil from Provo, Utah

No script, no plot, and bad narration. That's what this film is about. Seeing Jennifer Beals have to resort to acting in movies like this is enough to make a grown man cry. I love boxing films but this is one of the worst. Avoid it at all costs and rent Flashdance so you can remember what Jennifer used to be.
