A new review from The Movie Snob:

Cinderella Man (B). That Guy Named David has already posted a thorough review, so I'll limit myself to just a few words. I thought this was a good movie, but it just didn't make it into the "A" category for me. I'm as much a sucker for sentimental movies as the next guy, but Director Ron Howard trowels the treacle on just a bit too heavily even for my taste. Russell Crowe's character is like a St. Francis of Assisi of the Boxing Ring, which does at least make for a nice contrast to the actor's thuggish persona in real life. In the end, it's a feel-good movie, and I did leave feeling good, and only a little manipulated. Not bad.
