Goofs:
Errors in geography: Madison Square Garden's marquee overhanging Eighth Avenue is noticeably smaller and not as wide as the real one was. Also, the traffic is shown passing it from right to left, south and downtown. Traffic on Eighth Avenue goes in the opposite direction, from left to right, north and uptown. more

A great movie!, 13 May 2005
9/10
Author: waggonerm from Kansas City

I also went to a sneak preview of this movie last night, and it was good enough for me to join this site and write my first review. It did start out kind of slow, but the complete rainbow of emotions was contained in this movie. There were parts that nearly made you cry. There were parts that made you laugh out loud. I could barely contain my excitement during the last 15-20 minutes of the movie, I just wanted to scream out loud I was so excited. When we left the theater there was a ~60 year old woman delicately shadow boxing on her way out the door. Her husband asked her, "Are you winning?" She said, "I'm going to have dreams about this movie tonight." This was a great movie, and I would recommend it highly.
