Cinderella Man had some ominous press.Critics described the film as “schmaltz” and a “tear-jerker.”The movie’s ads claim that “When America was on its knees, he brought us to our feet,” which leaves us with little room to do anything but cheer in advance. The film’s trailer emphasized how depression-era people found Crowe’s character James J. Braddock an “inspiration.”With all this kind of ersatz clichéd Rocky triumph-of-the-human-spirit hoopla, how could the film be any good?
Oddly, I liked Cinderella Man mostly because of its acting, but also because there’s enough Depression-era desperation to make the melodrama seem earned. The story begins with James J. Braddock doing quite well as a middling-level boxer knocking out guys in in the late 1920s.He returns home to his flapper bride Mae played by Renee Zellweger with bobbed brunette hair and a little high voice that strikingly reminded me of Jennifer Tilly.Mae refuses to go see her husband fight because she suffers each blow as much as he does, but they kiss and canoodle and go hop into bed.Suddenly, as the camera pans to the left across their bureau, the action shifts to several years into the future, after the crash, and one finds that they had to sel

As a child I was told the story of The Cinderella Man by my father who was a student of Boxing history. After seeing the movie I am so inspired by the spirit of this great man. He was truly an American Hero.

I just finished the Cinderella Man and I just am in awe of the man. He had all the tools to succeed ,and when it seemed that he wasn't going to do it because of the bad breaks, depression etc. he fought through it and did what he had to do. My parents lived right through the depression and the meaning of those times were never forgotten nor would they allow their children to not understand what it meant to be poor. I ached when Jim and Mae had to decide what would they do without next. My dad had many a story of that time growing up in the so. Bronx. Moving month to month because they couldn't pay the rent or whichever brother got out 1st. got the socks to wear. This story told so much on so many levels most importantly that of family and survival .
