My Punch-Drunk Boxer

My Punch-Drunk Boxer is a quirky heart warming romantic comedy. And is remarkable for a number of reasons. Most of which can be credited to the impressive directing debut of Hyuk Ki Jung. Mr. Jung not only directed a very well crafted film but he wrote it as well. His script is full of wonderfully surprising characters, who are acted with great nuance. These fine players take us through an underdog comeback boxing story in a way we have not seen before. And although the film is not flawless (a couple of story threads are a little forced) the over all effect of the great acting, strong cinematography, editing and very story motivated (and at times comedic) music is quite remarkable. Is the film quirky? Yes. So maybe you'll know right off the bat if this film is for you. But if quirky is your kind of film, well I think you'll enjoy it.
