Our suggestions
The gripping story of two young men who attempt to climb out of the ghetto by entering into a corrupt fight-promoter's ring.
"Don't be confused, this is not Ridley Scott's 'Gladiator'. It's actually an older production about a boxer. So you know what to do: if you like movies about pugilists, this is your chance to see another gladiator. Starring James Marshall and Cuba Gooding Jr., 'Gladiator: The Challenge' tells the story of two young boxers who enter the underworld of illegal boxing fights. The fight scenes are well done, thanks to the good chemistry between Marshall and Cuba, which is one of the highlights of the production. The movie has a good message about overcoming, showing how the two protagonists grow throughout the plot."
