ok sorry cry

Saw "Million Dollar Baby" this afernoon and thought it was fantastic. My only gripe is that the transition from spunky drama to melodrama was a little too fast, but, being a boxing related movie, perhaps that's how quick someones life can change.

Had it featured a character like Michelle Rodriguez's in "Girlfight", it would have been stellar. But Swank's character looking to live her dream at age 31 was a nice touch. The backstory was all too familiar. Rich characters and great performances all around, and a very, very sad ending which was totally out of the norm for these types of movies.

I almost thought Clint Eastwood was trying to give a "dirt harry" performance sometimes ... was waiting for him to put the cowboy hat on and say " Make my day!"

but I thought he was doing a "dirty harry" performance in 'Bridges of Madison County' at times 😬

the more I think about Million Dollar Baby- the more I think- it is way over hyped!

He was just a sourpuss. Look at him like Burgess Meredith in "Rocky". It will change your whole perspective. Besides, Clint's always had the gravely voice.

yea... true...

but I still think the movie is a little over hyped-- after seeing Hilary Swank in Boys Dont Cry - which was an amazing performance...- it just doesnt compare at all to Million Dollar Baby

Didnt you think the ending was predictable?..

Spoiler:
I mean I knew she was going to die.or something tragic was going to happen??....

actually I was watching the Today show - before I saw this movie- and Katie Couric called the ending Million Dollar Bummer (sigh!) dont ask me why I was watching that...❌ anyways she sort of gave it away...

Predictable ending? No way. I figured one of two things would happen.

Spoiler:
Maggie would just end up getting her ass kicked, proving it was too much too soon, or Frankie was going to die along the way, leaving her all alone.

Morgan Freeman has sure gotten old

i loved his voice over - it reminded me of Shawshank Redemption- LOVE that movie!!

Spoiler:
when Maggie and Frankie were driving back from her mother's - she was talkiing about her dog she had when she was little.. at first I thought it was all random but I liked how they tied that in at the end

i just saw the movie and it was GREAT

any one that just seen this good movie,I did, where do you think He went at the end, and did he ever say anything about his daughter?,or was that her in the dinner at the end talking with clints black friend?
and do you think the dirty fighter was banned forever? 😮

he went to open a cafe... remember... he said he wanted to..when they stop that one time at that cafe to eat lemon pie...

and the whole movie... Morgan Freeman ... was basically writing a letter to Clint Eastwood's daughter...

i dont think the dirty fighter was banned... she didnt do anything wrong...

didnt she hit Swank after the bell?

She did everything wrong, including hitting her after the bell on several occassions. But, her character was nothing more than a plot device. She was the "scabby kraut" notorious for pulling stuff like that before, probably was never repremanded, and it doesn't matter, because like I said, it was to push the movie along.

If you remember clint also said he wanted a log cabin,and at the end it looked like Morgan Freeman was in the cafe or dinner talking to clints daughter, or could it be like morning glory said his words out loud were[and the whole movie... Morgan Freeman ... was basically writing a letter to Clint Eastwood's daughter] The movie also showed how a family and lowlife such as hers went to Disney first and didnt even care about seeing her.Also was clint very wrong to give the injection to her ?

There's been some controversy over Clint

Spoiler:
pulling the plug on Swank's character

That said, Clint said, and I quote. "What do these people want? I made the Welfare abusers the bad guys!?"

😂
