I consider my I big Muhammad Ali fan but I haven't got around to rent the Will Smith film, Ali. Is it worth renting and if so why?
Also, what fight scenes do they show? Are they realistic or do they look like a rocky movie? Any reviews are appreciated. ;)

they show a few fights like liston,frazier,foreman and a couple of others. its an alright movie but it drags on too much. i thought will smith did a good job though.plus if you want to see james toney he plays joe frazier

I think it is worth a rent. I wont say too much about it cause I dont want to ruin the movie by telling you too much. But I was very surprised how they captured those famouse fights, and didnt turn it into a rocky style fight fake fight.

The reason why this movie is impossible for me to find interesting is this: There was and only will be 1 Muhammed Ali and NO imitation will ever be good enough!

yes i liked this dvd better called; Muhammad Ali:The Whole Story. It's a 2 disc documentary tells just about everything about Ali, even shows huge segments of all his biggest fights.

It's not bad...they gloss over a lot of important facts though
