Reviews

AARCUT Raw portrayal of the drug/street life and the challanges of a preacher to continue his dream. Also shows intensity of big money, party life, and corruption. Boxing scene is intense and dramatic. I found it all a bit hard to take at times but at least it was real and not just a big fantasy.

magellan333 Carman: The Champion is what a Christian movie should be. I would have liked to have seen the plan of salvation given at some point, but I that is no big deal. The movie is marketed for Christians, who should have heard the plan of salvation before seeing the film. The movie is free of sexuality, excessive gore, or profanity..with the exception of the one commercial that the rival boxer stars in. Why is this word in a CHRISTIAN movie!?? The product could have been called anything else in the world, why did the producers find it necessary to put this word (repeatedly) in this one small meaningless segment of the movie? That is the only major flaw I found in what was otherwise an awesome movie. Fellow believers need to support movies like this. As someone on the NearGod Productions page put it, "A revival in Hollywood will affect the entire world." Well said, go rent it!

sweetums33 I saw this film the weekend it opened. I loved every minute of it and found it to be an excellant drama about the life of this boxer. He displayed great values and aimed to share his faith in what he did. Carman is a great actor and this movie rocked. The boxing scenes were superb and made you feel like you were in it. This film showed true to life elements of sin in people's lives and encourages you through the faith in God.

allenman This was a wonderful film, I was completely surprised on how well it was done. The story was very good, and the action scenes were much more realistic that those of the "Rocky" series. The film contained some scenes that were a little intense but it fits the real world. Wonderful job!I want to see it again, and also get the film on video.
