Watch Mr. Calzaghe For Free

So much average

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Truly insightful and emotional look into the boxing career of one the most underrated fighters of all time. Deep meaningful words were spoke by everybody involved in this film and the footage shown was wonderfully edited and let us see the real evolution of his days from a young talented boxer in wales to becoming a boxing sensation fighting at Madison square garden. One standout was Gareth A Davies who gave a real journalists insight into his fights and how he was captivated by Joe and what he done for the sport. The interviews also had a few big name stars who it was nice to know were Calzaghe fans and to hear their insight was great. The story at times was emotional and you felt for Joe and what he had to overcome to get the legacy he wanted and deserved. The ending was masterfully done and showed that Joe is now living the life he always wanted with his loving family by his side, Amazing documentary.

I've seen a lot of boxing documentaries and this is definitely one of the best. Great story! Great characters (the dad is one of a kind)! Great direction! Great story! The movie starts with his amateur career and ends with his final fight against Roy Jones Junior. Pretty normal for a boxing documentary. The difference is that this one is put together very well by people who know what they are doing. The production value is higher than I'm used to of sport documentaries.It really surprised me how compelling this film was. It just pulls you in and doesn't let you go. This one is a real gem. People who aren't really into boxing, but love to watch sports documentaries, for them this is a must-watch. 10/10

I got the Blu-ray for Christmas.If you are a fan of boxing or Calzaghe you should watch this. No debate about that. Boxing is not the same anymore.That said there is nothing really surprising about this documentary.It focuses a lot on the father/son relationship. You see Enzo talking about how he gave up his music and became a trainer.We see clips of a young Calzaghe in his amateur days. And we see clips of the most meaningful fights of his career and Joe talks a little about each fight. A few buildup clips are shown too (God, I hate that Hopkins guy).It felt like it could have been longer. It felt slightly rushed. It should have shown more buildup and post fight interviews. It was mentioned that the no-loss record was a psychological problem for Joe. The stress of keeping the 0. But nothing from Joe's own mouth. We did not get enough of his inner thoughts. Who is Joe Calzaghe as a person?Oh those little cute kids of his? Not so little anymore. Time flies...The extras was fun for me as a Dane because it features Mikkel Kessler. They show a lengthy clip of Joe and Mikkel watching and commenting their fight and playing ping pong. That was good fun. I think it is great that you can fight professionally and still be friends. No need for this Hopkins gangster s... Damn, Kessler looked like Ivan Drago in their fight. Time to end this review. Final verdict. You gotta have it! You know you do!

What a wonderful docu-movie this is. It has it all, a marvelous story, excellent directorship, powerful editing and a score you will love. I so enjoyed this and would heartily recommended it to all, boxing fan or not. It may be too simplistic but this movie is to boxing what Senna was to motor racing, the sport is secondary it is first and foremost a human story and what a story it is!Surprisingly the "real" star of the story is possibly not even Joe Calzaghe but his Dad, Enzo. How someone with no boxing pedigree can bring his son to the pinnacle of sporting stardom is truly a joy to watch!Enjoy, I am sure you will feel better having watched Mr Calzaghe than you did when you sat down to watch it.
