I cannot believe that people wrote anything good or remotely good about this film. The lead role, played by Rossif Sutherland, should be his last stint in the acting biz. He acted like Keanu Reeves on Xanax. Then the mentally handicapped character was a real disgrace to the handicapped all over the world. The boxing scenes looks like Mike Tyson's Punchout and Danny Glover! Does he even have any credibility? If your even dreaming about watching this movie, it's a bad idea. It's embarrassing that people spent millions on this movie, and there's not even any brasts to make up for its poor plot line, horrible cast and Lifetime original movie feel.
