Movie Reviews of Muhammad Ali (Skill, Brains & Guts/In His Own Words)
Movie Review: Dissapointed with documentary
Summary: 1 Stars
I own both 'When we were Kings' and 'Muhammad Ali: Greatest Fights (HBO)', I thought this DVD would complement my collection. It does not. The documentary does not show any of Ali's fights but gives you the fight summaries with the sound of the starting bell in the background. Ali's interviews are short (though some of them are rare footage). Two of Ali's greatest fights 'Rumble in the Jungle' and 'Thirller in Manilla' are treated like any other fight, with no emphasis on their importance in Ali's career. The summation in the ending is too abrupt and leaves a true Ali fan dissapointed with this short and commercially engineered documentary.
Summary of Muhammad Ali (Skill, Brains & Guts/In His Own Words)
This DVD contains two documentaries about boxing legend Muhammad Ali, one focusing on Ali's brilliance in the ring and the other on his natural showmanship at the microphone. Skill, Brains & Guts begins with Ali's emergence as a great amateur fighter, then chronicles his career through the glory days of the 1960s, his exile from the ring following his refusal to join the military during the height of the Vietnam War, and his eventual comeback and landmark fights against Joe Frazier and George Foreman. The 1975 film is worth watching for all the fight footage of Ali in his prime, when he captivated the world with both his pugilistic skill and his entertaining arrogance. In His Own Words collects a number of rarely seen interview and press conference clips and showcases Ali as a remarkably skilled practitioner of what would become known as "talking trash." --Robert J.
