Frankie is one of the most ambitious coaches in boxing. Frankie's life is completely isolated from others. He is a lonely man isolated from his only daughter and has no friends beside him or his brother. An ambitious girl called Maggie Fitzgerald has decided to learn boxing. She asked Frankie to teach boxing. Frankie refused to train Maggie because he did not want to train girls completely but after suffering he agreed to train her. Maggie tried to play her favorite game and prove to Frankie that she was the boxer Frankie dreamed of. Maggie was not the boxing player to whom Frankie aspired but also was the only friend who filled the great void he had in his life where he was isolated from everyone.

Always one of America's most undervalued directors, Clint Eastwood is proving himself the American cinema's national treasure in the third act of his career.
January 10, 2014
As an actor, Eastwood has rarely taken on a character as complex as Frankie Dunn.
February 24, 2013
It's impressive, in the sense that a sucker-punch impresses itself on your skull.
February 27, 2015
The movie is simultaneously conventional and subversive, broad and nuanced, shamelessly manipulative and genuinely moving, a cheap sucker punch and a work of real moral weight.
February 24, 2013
It is thoughtful, unfashionable, measured, mostly honest, sometimes clumsy or remote, often exciting, occasionally moving and eventually surprising. It's correct.
February 27, 2015
Anyone who doesn't believe that Clint Eastwood is one of the best film-makers in America ought to see Million Dollar Baby.
February 27, 2015
The film is impeccably made, but more than that, the director who also composed the lovely music score, brings a rare degree of humanity to the intensely moving conclusion.
February 27, 2015
I don't think it's his masterpiece, but it's a big, beautiful, sad film with unforgettable performances.
February 27, 2015
A heartfelt, creditable picture.
February 27, 2015
From beginning to end, its dark, foreboding atmosphere reflects the troubled world in which its three central figures conduct their essentially moral lives.
January 10, 2014
The only differences between this new film and its many forebears are that the young hopeful is a woman and the finish is unforeseen.
February 24, 2013
Barely a year after the release of Mystic River, Clint Eastwood delivers a second consecutive drama that fearlessly probes the shadows of human morality without falling back on easy answers.
