In a cynical world where we seem to delight in finding fault with our political leaders and role models, Ali stands out as a truly legendary example of man against the system. George Bernard Shaw wrote, "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."
This film shows that Ali was far from reasonable. He made exacting demands of himself, which on occasion he fails to meet. Will Smith portrays Ali the legend with dignity and sensitivity, giving us an insight to the man, his motives, loves and hates. In an Oscar winning role, Will Smith becomes Ali and exudes the trademark charisma, strength and power that Ali was so famous for.
The film is touching showing our hero flaws and all: the difficult relationship with his father; the rise to early stardom; the fall from grace at the hands of the American Senate; and his remarkable come back to defeat the powerhouse George Foreman in the sensational Rumble in the Jungle.
The film, unlike many Hollywood productions, makes no attempt to romanticise the life of the greatest heavyweight champion the world has ever seen. Will Smith portrays a womanising Ali who appears to struggle with his Muslim beliefs, and yet is mindful of the Nation of Islam's hypocrisy that comes across in the film. There is also a hint of things to come when Ali confronts Don King following another successful defence of his heavyweight title.
Neither a love of boxing, Will Smith, or Ali are prerequisites for owning this film. It is a touching, inspirational and entertaining film that strives to remain historically accurate, whilst condensing some of Ali's brightest moments into the available viewing time. Funny, thrilling and emotionally engaging, the film is a must buy and an essential addition to any DVD collection.

There some pretty challenging roles for an actor to play and trying to bring the energy and sheer presence of Muhammad Ali to the screen must rank with the toughest. Yet Smith handles the task admirably and lifts an otherwise ordinary film into reaching distance of an Oscar. Smith earned his second nomination for his portrayal of Ali in the defining decade of his life 1964-74 in which Ali bookends his conversion to Islam and his refusal to accept the draft, with title wins over Sonny Liston and George Foreman.
The film plays like a documentary and judged on this; it would be easy to recommend the Oscar winning "When We Were Kings" - after all,if you want Ali, why not get the real one. Smith, who trained for a year to pack on the weight and to look convincing as a fighter is electric in the scenes when he does the former champ off to a tee in both his looks and diction - his interviews with a straight-faced Howard Cosell (Jon Voigt)are vintage stuff, with the spontaniety of a genuine ad-libber. In the quieter moments he struggles a little bit, almost as though he is moving from Ali setpiece to Ali set piece. You'll definitely watch this for performance if not content

I bought this DVD because it was cheap - £1.27, inc shipping - so I was not all that disappointed in what I recv'd.
It's an OK film and there's a bonus disc with a Making Of featurette and a behind the scenes bit too.
My biggest problem was that Will Smith is too recognizable an actor to portray such an iconic figure.
He doesn't disappear into the role and make you believe you're watching Ali, like, for example, Jamie Foxx did in Ray.
He had Ali's voice down pretty well but I could never get past it being Will Smith.
If you're curious and can get a copy as cheaply as I did, go for it.

This is a very good portrayal of Ali from Will Smith. He shows his charisma and charm and manages to capture the character of the greatest. The film finishes with the 'Rumble in the Jungle', arguably the biggest fight of Ali's career. This is well worth watching, despite the fact that it glosses over some of the more controversial parts of Ali's past, such as the very strong views that he held in his early days with the nation of Islam. This is a very enjoyable film however and a must watch for all boxing and Ali fans.

This is a decent movie, but not what I expected. The acting and everything regarding the production is good but its the portayal of Ali himself that annoys me. Sure, they show his couragousness, his bravery, his greatness in the ring .... but where is Ali's legendary witt and sense of humour, its simply not there. The most noteable thing about Ali, when watching the interviews he conducted at that time, was his humour, his wit and his sense of fun .... none of that is present in this movie. Instead they portray Ali as a quite subdued and softly spoken individual with none of the personality. Its not Will Smith's fault as he turns in a quality performance ... but the film doesnt capture the man himself and not as we knew him. Obviously there was a lot more to Ali's character than that, but to completely ignore that large side of this character was a poor move.

What also annoys me, is that the film only concentrates on a small section of his career. Where was the second and third fights with Frazier? Where was Ken Norton? Having the film climax with the George Forman fight was a bad move .... unless they were planning a sequel, which as far as I know they are not.

Although this was a decent movie, it was still a dissapointment for this fan of films, boxing and Ali himself.
