Review of When We Were Kings (1996) by Andy D — 08 Sep 2008
A crackingly cool, funny and funky look into the events, and characters that made 'The Rumble In The Jungle' the possibly most anticipated, and important, boxing match of all time. Ali is funny, intelligent, articulate and insightful, Foreman is brooding and powerful like a thundercloud.
Even Don "Dont trust me as far as you can spit" King proves to be a truly engaging character, overflowing with charisma. The film shows a lot of the James Brown concert, and is as close as you will get to being there.
Ali! Bum-ba-yay!!
