Southpaw

After winning his fourth lightweight world championship and tragically losing his wife (Rachel McAdams) in this gritty, well-acted, tension-filled, violent, star-studded (Naomie Harris, 50 Cent, Jon Jon, Victor Ortiz, and Rita Ora), 123-minute film, the life of a distraught, guilt-ridden, widowed boxer (Jake Gyllenhaal) in New York City goes off the rails until he starts fighting for his daughter (Oona Laurence) and getting back into the ring with his nemesis (Miguel Gomez) with the help of a no-nonsense trainer (Forest Whitaker).
