Body and Soul

Jennifer Beals did not have enough sound speaking parts in this movie. I do not like movies that have young Black American women playing roles as a prostitute or hooker. She could have had a role playing an intelligent woman who was interested in a man who wanted to be a boxer or to do better in his life. Jennifer was supportive to the main character.The outcome of the movie was predictable.

I found this film too be pretty good overall. Most of the actors are names we know, and those that are not turn out too be pretty fair. The story makes sence and the chariters are interesting. Worth watching on a day with nothing to do.

A FAMILY OF BOXERS. FIRST SON LEAVES HOME TO SEAK HIS FORTUNE BOXING IN THE HOT SPOTS OF VEGAS BEFORE HIS FATHER FEELS HE'S READY AND WITHOUT HIS FATHER AS HIS MANAGER. HE IS USED, ABUSED AND KILLED BY THE MOB OWNED VEGAS BOXING WORLD. HIS YOUNGER BROTHER IS OUT FOR REVENGE, ALONG WITH HIS FATHER AND GRANDFATHER. JENNIFER BEALS IS THE SON'S INSPIRATION. JM

I purchased this item for two reasons; I like Ray Mancini; and the original with John Garfield, and the Bowery Boys, was top notch(and the only version worth seeing). I was hoping that this version would capture some of the magic of the original. It didn't. It was so bad, that I'm going to give it away-rather than try to sell it to some other unsuspecting soul. Carboard characters, cheap sets, and an awful acting job by Mancini. Next time I want to see him, I'll throw in an old VHS of one of his fights. Don't waste your money on this one.

I didn't care for this one. It was just written so bad Jennifer is beautiful as always and does a great job , and she can act, but the others were bad. Save your money, but if you want it in your Jennifer Beals collection like I did then buy it.

I loved the movie. Jennifer Beals has played several different roles in the movies she has been in and every preformance has been excellent. She puts 100% into everything she does. The movie was worth watching again. My husband even watched it. There were several other actors I remembered from other shows. As I understand, Ray Mancini was a real boxer at one time. All in all it was a great movie.

I al french so my english is not very good.Thanks a lot for the quick sending.I like this movie.Perhaps I will buy others movies soon.
