Review of Shadowboxer

Shadowboxer (2005)
2/10
Could have used more action
16 February 2007
Warning: Spoilers
When I read the description on the movie case for this, I was expecting something faster paced than what it was. The description said they run for their lives, not buy a house and live there for years. The basic idea of the story line wasn't a bad one, it just didn't move as quickly as it could have.

I think Cuba Gooding Jr.'s acting was very stiff and not of his usual caliber. The writing could have been greatly improved on and the acting left a lot to be desired. Sex scenes that went too far as I feel most of them added nothing to the story other than several shots of Cuba's backside.

Would not recommend this movie to anyone unless they are bored or really want to see Cuba naked.
