I Enjoyed the Actors Weak Film,
By
This review is from: Undisputed (DVD)
Wesley Snipes and Ving Rhames are both actors that I believe will eventually gain the correct roles and get the chance to demonstrate the talent they have. Wesley Snipes has been around longer, and Ving Rhames has already collected a Golden Globe for his performance as Don King in a made for HBO film. The sleeper performance in this film is by Peter Falk known by so many as the unbeatable detective Colombo (sp) on television. But no amount of talent can bring this film above the B movie cliché it is.Ving Rhames was training for a bio-film called; "Nightrain", when it was postponed and he then took on this boxing film, as he had been preparing to play another fighter for the film I mentioned. Wesley Snipes is in amazing physical condition, and both actors were credible in the contrived steel ring they eventually fought in. The actual fight is something you will gain plenty of interrupted glimpses of, for not only is it edited in a music video rapid fire staccato style, the director also kept obscuring the fight by filming with the bars between the camera and the fighters. The fight did not appear to need such camouflage, but perhaps this method was necessary. The DVD includes extended interviews with both Wesley Snipes and Ving Rhames, and these added some interest to a very average film. A moment worth noting for the ludicrousness of it was when they decided to isolate Snipe's character from Rhames who was pretty clearly based upon Mike Tyson. It was not enough to separate them within the prison; Wesley Snipe's character had to be welded in to his cell. Moments like this made any effort to be entertained difficult; as they require the viewer to accept the absurd not just suspend disbelief.
