Good Movie, Great Man
By David Levy from Totteridge, London , 27 Sep 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
Given that the movie is called 'Ali', and that the cover features what appears to be Muhammad Ali boxing, you would be forgiven for thinking 'Ali' is a boxing movie. It is not.
To make a movie about a character as rich and as interesting as Muhammad Ali, and to make it purely about boxing is like making a movie about fruit, and concentrating (no pun intended) on Oranges.
Ali (the movie) is a character study. Like Malcolm X, The Doors, or any other recent biopic, it tries to give a rounded and balanced view of what was an extraordinary human being. This is not, repeat not, a sports movie. What it is, however, is a maticulously (sp?) constructed and executed film, about not only Muhammad Ali, but also the life and times in which he lived.- Was this review helpful to you?

Ali - Not a knockout!
By Valiant016 (52 reviews) from Lytham St. Annes , 19 May 2011I was disappointed with this film. The story jumped about and characters wandered in to and out of the storyline without always following a logical sequence.
Will Smith did his best, but frankly failed to convince as 'The Greatest'.- Was this review helpful to you?
