Most helpful review F.I.S.T.

  • Almost good

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By a customer from Pembrokeshire , 26 Mar 2005

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This film, about Stallone's rise through the union movement, comes close to being a really good film. For me, however, the characters just don't come alive. The surface is scratched but in the end it is all just too superficial. If the Stallone character was really as witless as he was in the love scenes, and particularly in his meeting with his girl friends mother, he could never have progressed anywhere. I think that it is an entertaining film but it could have been so much better.

  • Stallone in F.I.S.T

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By a customer , 11 Oct 2011
    Stallone at his charming best - F.I.S.T tells a story of early union movement, corruption and mob interference in the union. Will have you gripped from start to finish.

  • Bunions? Blob? What's going on?

    Rated - 3.5 stars

    Powerful bunions? They'd better be powerful

    to take on Sly. Then he's got to take on the blob. This must be one surreal movie .
