I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This documentary cements itself as one of the greats in boxing history. Out of the numerous films, books, documentaries and other assorted material on Muhammad Ali, Facing Ali surely is in the top 5. With no interviews of the legend himself, Pete McCormack crafts an intimate and touching portrait of Ali through the eyes of his biggest rivals. George Chuvalo, Henry Cooper, George Foreman, Joe Frazier, Larry Holmes, Ron Lyle, Ken Norton, Earnie Shavers, Leon Spinks and Ernie Terrell all have unique voices into what it meant to fight the champ and on the legacy he left. Chuvalo in particular speaks exceptionally well, giving analysis to both Ali the man and the fighter. This is an unmissable treat.

Muhammad Ali is the link for narrating the personal and sporting life of him and of other great boxers of his time. Much more than a biographical documentary, this is a doc about political and sociological history of the noble art, centered in the years when Cassius Clay/Ali shined. By watching this film you understand why there are so many movies about boxing: boxers are very often underdogs with amazing life stories. What makes someone becomes a boxer, what kinds of life they have before, what happens afterwards... Spectator gets moved not only by the tragic post-retirement of one of the greatest sportsmen that ever existed, but also by the difficulties, breakthroughs, successes, dreams an falls of other fighters who have been strong opponents of Ali, having defeated him, knocked him down or just having a heavier punch than he was accustomed to. By thinking about those stories you can imagine many more movies that would have been amazing but that have never been shot. Ron Lyle, Ken Norton, Earnie Shavers, Ernie Terrell, George Chuvallo, Henry Cooper... Perhaps someday.

The movie set out to tell the story of Mohammed Ali through the eyes of 10 of his more noteworthy opponents and did a commendable job at that. Ali's story is well documented, however, and there's not much info we don't already know from a historical perspective. The unexpected (and perhaps unintended) beauty of this movie is in the honesty, humor, wisdom, sadness and humility of the 10 boxers who tell the story. Particularly compelling parts include: George Chuvalo discussing what it was like to lose 2 sons to drug ODs and a wife so distraught over it that she committed suicide; Joe Frazier finally breaking down and being moved to tears over Ali's current condition; Ernie Shaver's outright admiration for Ali and confessing that Ali truly did win their fight (he originally claimed he was robbed); Ken Norton's personal revelations about being down and out before the fight and the new lease on life his fight w/Ali gave him; and Ron Lyle's sage wisdom on not letting what many claimed to be a BS stoppage that denied him the HW title make him bitter and instead embracing the celebrity and opportunity his fight w/Ali provided him for the rest of his life. These are just a few but there are many more. I found myself compelled by the stories these 10 great fighters told (except for Ernie Terrell)and the movie left me with a new found respect and admiration for all of them. Even my wife, who is no kind of sports fan, absolutely loved it.I can't imagine any boxing fan who sees this film not putting it at or near the tippy top of their favorite boxing movie list

I wasn't sure what to expect with this film. I had not heard anything about it and when I was able to get a copy I figured it would be a puff piece, but it is much much more than that. Interviews with several opponents of Muhammad Ali reveal a lot about both the interviewees themselves, and their lives, and their almost unanimous love for Ali. Footage of each fighter's bouts with Ali is plentiful and exciting, and watching it will make you cry when you realize how much he has lost over the years. Something else that will make you cry is what one of his greatest opponents--I won't say who it is---cries openly for Ali and calls him "a great guy...and I hope he gets to live the way we all live...he's earned it." This film just knocked "Tyson" out of the top spot in my best sports documentaries of the year list.
