Review of Million Dollar Baby (2004) by Jayakrishnan R — 07 May 2015

A great movie from Clint Eastwood , he is one of the best directors in terms of getting best performances from his actors, he pretty much always picks stories about underdogs and he never fails to show humanity in his characters and stories he is telling ,his movies always have a strong moral side no exception here too , acting in the movie is just perfect , Clint plays usual role for him but that is kind of roles he always plays and does them well ( I agree he does not have a great range but in his range he is the best) Hilary swank is just incredible, Morgan freeman is playing and narrating the movie which makes it more interesting to watch !!! won't talk much about the plot to not spoil tho its a 2005 movie .

its not just a boxing movie it's about human relationship , loyalty about struggle of making hard choices, about what are we ready to sacrifice for achieving our dreams . of course there are some cons (mostly clichés that is not necessary a bad thing but I really don't like them ) Clint doesn't use camera tricks there is no special effects .

there is just some quite piano playing here and there that he composed by himself this movie doesn't need all that , it punches you so hard you won't get up at least I didn't.
