Cinderella Man (2005) - Full reaction
Added 2023-01-10 07:37:55 +0000 UTC
I loved loved this movie. Movies that can make you FEEL like that are just special. The fact that it was based off a true story is incredible and inspiring and it is amazing acting, directing, storytelling that can make you fall just so in love with this family in 2 hours. One of my new favorites.

This is one of those movies that seems to get better every time I see it. I don't know how long ago you watched Million Dollar Baby, but I have nothing against someone rewatching a great movie, especially if they don't remember much of it. I know you saw To Kill a Mockingbird years ago, but that is another movie I would love to see a reaction to.

I had not seen this movie in 30 years. I forgot how good the movie is.
Cassie: "Can't this just be over ... Oh frick. Make it be over."
I know the punching was hard for you to watch. You have said since the beginning of the channel, you have a hard time watching people hit each other. You made it through and able to appreciate the movie.
Thank you for your heartfelt comments at the end of the outro.

Cassie, you sharing about the trials your family has endured- as well as the dire situation of your son(s)- was so very heartfelt. Thank you for becoming vulnerable and sharing your life with all of us. Things such as that vulnerability- in addition to you and Carly's authenticity make it impossible to second-guess my patronage of Popcorn in Bed.

I'm with Cassie. I know Eminem, but I am not familiar with the song, "Cinderella Man." I enjoy when you do these together SO much. I love Carly! :) Belated Happy Birthday, Carly!

If Carly is feeling nostalgic for "the Rocky days", as well as just movies about boxing, the movie "Chuck" (aka "The Bleeder" in parts of the world) would take care of that. The moderators were confused about this movie because it's easily confused with "The Brawler" which is another movie about the same man, so I hope that all got straightened out because "Chuck" is an amazing movie that I've never heard anyone talk about except for on this channel. And, without giving anything away, it has a strong connection to the Rocky movies.

Oh, I've wanted this to happen so much! This may be my all time favorite sports film! Not just boxing. Cassie, since I discovered this channel and became a fan of you and the great work you do, I had hoped you would watch this film. I was sure you would love it and it would inspire a strong emotional reaction. It's good to be right but it's even better to get a hope fulfilled. Thank you for that! I saw this film in theaters in 2005. Coming off the great but depressing boxing film Million Dollar Baby (2004), this film was a breath of fresh air. To this day, it is one of the best and certainly one of the emotional experiences I've ever had in a theater. I had cried in a theater before but by the end of this film I was full on weeping. With joy. From an acting standpoint, directorial standpoint, storytelling standpoint and every technical standpoint this film is superb. But the thing I want to mention and praise is the beautiful, perfect, triumphant, and amazingly emotional music by the great Thomas Newman. This film has so much heart and Newman's score is responsible for a lot if it. Speaking of music, in addition to the Eminem song that Carly brought up, there is another song called Cinderella Man. The Canadian band Rush released a song called Cinderella Man in 1977. Anyway, like I said this movie has a big heart. As do you, Cassie. Which is why I wanted you to see it and why I knew you would love it. All the best to you and your family. Take care.

She also reacted to Rush before this one. Which is another Ron Howard movie based on real events.

You have a spot for Ron Howard movies, based on real life events, first Apollo 13 and then Cinderella Man, Thirteen Lives is on Amazon, based on the events of the Thailand Cave Rescue , directed by Ron Howard and has Vigo Mortesan aka Aragon from Lord of the Rings.... ALso not a Ron Howard Movie, but Lion based on real life events is also a great movie

You are so right about all the trials people born in early 1900's had to endure. I saw this just now and thought it helped to see what people underwent. "Imagine for a moment that you were born in the year 1900. When you were 14 years old, World War I begins and ends only when you are 18 years old, leaving 22 million dead.
A little later, a worldwide pandemic, the Spanish Flu, appears, killing 50 million people. And you are alive, 20 years old.
At 29 years old, you survive the global economic crisis that began with the crash of the New York Stock Exchange, causing inflation, unemployment and hunger.
When you are 33 years old, Nazism comes to power.
When you're 39, World War II starts and ends when you're 45, with 60 million dead.
When you are 52 years old, the Korean War begins.
When you're 64, the Vietnam War starts and ends when you're 75.
A person born in 1985, for example, thinks that their grandparents have no idea how difficult life is, not knowing that they have survived several wars and catastrophes.
Today we have been living with a great pandemic for more than a year. We are scared and tired. We lost friends and relatives, we are scared.
In the past, conditions were even worse, but yes, humanity survived under these conditions and overcame it.
Believe me, better days await us."

Happy Birthday Carly! And what a great pick! I think it's safe to say a lot of us were excited for this one. It was a pretty safe bet that this heart breaking, yet uplifting and inspiring movie was right up your alley. It was a joy to watch you and Carly connect with this one. I kinda forgot how many tears come with this movie though lol. The first half was sad tears and the second half was happy tears.
Now off to watch Seabiscuit. I see a lot of people recommending it after Cinderella Man, and they are right Cassie. A very inspiring movie with a very similar heart. A short story to speak to that point --- When the dvd was released, a friend of mine was over at the house. All of the sudden while watching t.v., we heard shouting coming from upstairs. My Dad's booming voice yelling at the top of his lungs (along with the t.v. at full blast). When we muted the t.v. and listened close to hear what the heck was happening, we heard "Go Seabiscuit!!! Go go go!!! You can do it!!!!"

Cassie, I am so proud of you! I remember when I first joined your channel and watched the first few reactions and you were skeptical of movies like Shawshank Redemption going in. That “Cassie” who only watched happy movies with romance is long gone!
I can see how much you have grown since you first started the channel and it’s so great to see.
This movie had the whole range of emotions and hearing you say that it is one of the best movies you’ve seen on the channel just goes to show that you are not the same person who started the channel.
It’s like what you wrote in the description, “Movies that can make you FEEL” That is exactly right. Yes, feel good happy ending movies are great, but it’s these movies that make you feel something and make you think that are truly great.
I’m so happy to have been here for the ride!! 🍿

It kills me that my father was 11 years old when Braddock made his comeback as "meat" in the ring. Both my parents grew up during the depression but, being kids of sharecroppers, I wonder how different it was than going through it in cities? Still hurts me to think of my Dad going through these kinds of tribulations.
Anthony Perez
2023-01-11 19:27:01 +0000 UTC
***WARNING: Some Spoilers Below***
Arguably filmmakers made an unnecessary mistake portraying Max Bear as a deliberate killer. It is clear Bear was deeply remorseful about the death of Frankie Campbell, and at worst Bear was a little irresponsible with his incredible punching power.
A far better and more accurate story would’ve been to focus on how lightly Max Bear prepared for the bout with Braddock. Bear refused to train and completely underestimated the "Cinderella Man,” so Bear was much more like Apollo Creed than Clubber Lang or Ivan Drago.
Unfortunately, the controversy over Max Bear’s depiction contributed to a poor initial reception for this otherwise great film. Russell Crowe, no doubt in a sour mood over the film’s debut performance, also threw a phone injuring a hotel employee during the opening weekend. An incident which may have increased public reluctance to reward the film.
Sad because, as Cassie and Carly discovered, it is an affecting film with great performances.

Cassie you will love Tin Cup. Kevin Costner movie. Cinderella Man was a Fantastic Movie. It got pushed aside when it came to the Oscars because Million Dollar Baby won the Oscar the previous yr. No way Hollywood would allow 2 boxing movies to win back to back years.

Wonderful reaction ladies!
I had seen this movie when it first came out. But I totally forgot all the details. So it was almost like watching it for the first time. I totally forgot what a good movie that was!
I love your guy’s references. “Where do I know him from? Big Fat Liar!” “Oh. He’s from Legally Blond 2”.
I was going to poke fun at you. But then I realized I knew exactly what you were talking about! 😂
Happy Birthday Carly! Have a wonderful and safe trip!
P.S. Thank you for sharing in the second intro Cassie. You’re a good Mom.

This was the world my Dad was born in. Fortunately his father owned an auto repair shop so he always had work, and his grandparents lived on a ranch so they always had food. It was the city people who were on the verge of starvation; those who lived in the country could hunt and grow food. It sure was the Greatest Generation.
I wish they hadn’t demonized Max Baer, who was a good man. Don’t know why Hollywood needs to do that, but it’s the only flaw of this movie. Love the chemistry between Russell Crowe and Paul Giamatti!

Great movie and another great reaction awesome ladies. It’s such an inspiring movie especially knowing it was based on a true story.

Who could have imagined... two young, sweet, self-described lovers of only recent Ron-Com movies... finding and following the path of producing movie reaction videos... creating the two very best ever reaction videos... for movies about, of all things... 'BOXING'!
IMHO, the PiB reactions for; Cassie's 'Rocky II' and for; Cassie and Carly's 'Cinderella Man' have NO EQUAL here on the Patreon platform. For me, these are quite simply, the Two BEST Movie Reactions EVER!

"Tough time in the 30s"... my parents grew up in it.
men would line up outside the fence of a construction site, waiting. When they saw the foreman come out with a pink slip, they would start climbing the scaffold to be the first one to the top and get the position.
A drunk could keep a bottle of whiskey under his mortarboard because it made him lay brick faster (albeit sloppier), while if a man stopped to light a cigarette, he could be fired.

"Cinderella Story" is the catchphrase that "Cindrella Man" comes from. It's a very old old cliched term for someone who goes from nothing to... everything... someone who beats the odds.
And, no, I've never heard M&M's song. Not a big fan :)

Great Reaction, Cassie & Carly to a great movie. You sisters did it to me again. You got all emotional and made me emotional. You ladies are hard on me. Thanks for the great experience. Okay Carly you can go on your trip. Just make sure you come back for more reactions. Cassie is great by herself. But, the two of you together is simply amazing and mesmerizing.

RAGING BULL is a boxing movie the way PSYCHO is a movie about hotel management.
Jason Chirevas
2023-01-10 22:21:01 +0000 UTC
I just wanted to confirm that Braddock did pay back the welfare that he received because that is one of my absolute favorite scenes in this movie. It is one more piece of evidence for the character of this man. I really appreciated how you did recognize that him going to beg from the boxing agents was a sign of strength...to put his duty to care for his family above his pride.
If you are looking for another movie with similar themes, I would definitely echo the recommendations for Seabiscuit.

Happy Birthday, Carly! Special, speacial reaction. I know that Cassie was really connecting to it, really feelingit , and I was thinking at the end that she was crying more than we've ever seen before. It was all explained in the outro, and I think we have all had a special moment when a movie really struck home true to our lives. I think it was courageous for Cassie to put all the that info in the 2nd outro. Congratulations on such an excellent reaction.

Really glad you liked this one Cassie - I have a few ties to it myself (on top of enjoying it immensely). I used to write for a website called "Cyber Boxing Zone" and one of the admins there was Mike Delisa, who wrote the book "Cinderella Man" that the built this script around. They also shot the fight scenes at Maple Leaf Gardens, and they asked for extras to come dressed in period attire to be "the crowd". I was there (in an thrift store suit and fedora) but I have never spotted myself in any of those scenes (disappointing :)). But they shot most of it in Toronto and they had a couple hundred yards of Queen Street (just south of Chinatown) made up to look like NYC of the era. It was all pretty cool ;)

Another thing is that Max Baer wasn't quite the villain we saw on the screenn. Yes, he basically killed two of his opponents because he had an incredibly powerful punch, but he felt horrible about it. Paid for funeral expenses and I think he paid for the college tuition of one of their kids.
Rosanne Stewart
2023-01-10 10:26:57 +0000 UTC
In real life, Max Baer only killed one man in the ring. He sat with the man's family as they waited for the ambulance, broke down in tears at his funeral, raised money for his wife and children. The event haunted him for the rest of his life. To quote Max Baer, Jr. (Jethro on "The Beverly Hillbillies"), “The portrayal of my father in Cinderella Man couldn’t have been more wrong and inaccurate. They turned a good-hearted, fun-loving, friendly, and warm human being who hated boxing into Mr. T from Rocky III with no redeeming characteristics.”

It's just a great film. Please, please, please react to Seabiscuit with Carly. It's another great sports film.

Happy probably belated by now birthday Carly!!
Hey how about a rewatch of Snatch with Carly, Brad Pitt + boxing? I think Mickey is one of his all time best characters.
Speaking of quirky Brad Pitt characters, have to recommend 12 Monkeys, and True Romance, he's not the main character in either, and actually a very small part in True Romance, but those are both awesome movies.

Despite liking the "based on true story" sports movies very much as they often play on my heartstrings in the very best way, this is one movie I never got around to watching. Boxing is the sport that never really worked for me in any film so far so I was always putting watching this one off. But I admit Cassie's enthusiasm is making me excited to watch it finally.

Love this movie. I don't think I've seen anyone react to it before, so thank you!

Yay! This is one I've been hoping you'd do.
Trivia: The woman who plays Mike's wife is the real-life granddaughter of Jim Braddock. Her mother is little Rosie.
Now a perfect follow-up to this one is Seabiscuit, starring Tobey Maguire and Jeff Bridges. Same time period, same underdog story. YOU WILL LOVE IT.

This movie always reminds me of my mom. This and Seabiscuit were her favorites. We watched this one shortly before she passed. Have nothing but warm memories of it. Excellent movie.
