If you are a Meg Ryan fan, I would go to see it for the sake of consistency. And for the rest of you, don’t be expecting a Rocky, or a Play It To The Bone type deal. So, until next time, Girl Power!

Against the Ropes is inspired by the true story of Jackie Kallen, the most successful female manager in boxing history. Meg Ryan portrays Jackie Kallen,a smart, gutsy woman who wants to break out of a dead-end job as she knows she was meant for more. She gets her chance when she sees Luthor Shaw (Omar Epps) in a brawl and knows he’s a champion in the raw. Determined to follow her heart, she becomes Luthor’s boxing manager and convinces him that he can fight his way out of a thug life. Together with veteran trainer Felix Reynolds (Charles S. Dutton), Jackie and Luthor discover they need each other to realize their dreams and take the boxing world by storm.
