Really good movie. I was a fan of boxing when Micky Ward was fighting; so I found his story very interesting; but this is a great, very well-acted, sometimes poignant and humorous, story of family conflict and drama, personal growth, and courage even if you are not a boxing fan. If you don't like violence you might find yourself needing to look away during some of the fight scenes in the ring and during one other scene, but they are brief.
