Kinda of a weird weekend coming up... A boxing film that looks very good - but does not have the action, special effects and explosion teens like, and a mega-chiky flick that may only appeal to 16 year-old girls...

I would not be surprised if something from last week (Star Wars, Longest Yard, Madagascar) makes it to 1st place this weekend.

You're probably right, star wars will probably take it again or maybe Madagasgar.
I wish to skip ahead to batman, this week has nothing but wait for video's.

no action!?! its a boxing movie, you don't think guys beating the crap out of each other is action!?! Action doesn't always have to be explosions and shooting, that is just what they have brainwashed you to think. Cinderella Man will be #1.

The 47 percent that Lords of Dogtown has sure looks promising.

Hope there's more movies like Cinderfella this summer. Seems like an x-mas or fall movie. Should bring in the boomers.
