Amazon.com Rocky gets a prison-block makeover in Undisputed, and the generic combination packs a vicious one-two punch. Owing much to the macho, gut-busting B movies of Hollywood's golden age, this no-nonsense drama gets right down to business, beginning when heavyweight champ "Iceman" Chambers (Ving Rhames) enters Sweetwater prison on a rape charge. The prison has a boxing program, and convicted killer Monroe Hutchen (Wesley Snipes) is the 10-year undefeated champion. A challenge bout is coordinated by an aging mobster prisoner (Peter Falk) and the head guard (Michael Rooker), and Undisputed pummels its way to its brutal and unpredictable conclusion. Colorful characters abound (foul-mouthed Falk is the hilarious standout), and seasoned director Walter Hill (coscripting with his Alien partner David Giler) brings them together with invigorating focus. There's not an ounce of fat on this tough-minded movie, and even its inevitable outcome seems freshly unexpected. Obviously inspired by Mike Tyson's ill-fated escapades, Undisputed turns fact into potent cellblock fiction. --Jeff Shannon

Straight Up Fight Film August 31, 2008 This is a straight up fight film with a simple new twist, it takes place in a prison.
I always enjoy seeing Peter Falk, and the character he plays as the gangster is great.
Once the stage is set, you pick your favorite to win and watch as the fight unfolds.
Great entertainment.
Delivers what it promises... November 14, 2007 If you're a fan of either boxing or prison movies, or both, this a good pic for you. Fans of Peter Falk may want to check this out also... as he revisits his classic hard-boiled, wizened old guy role, this time in a much-aged version. The film wins points for being straight-forward and to the point... while still leaving ambiguities that keep it interesting and true-to-life, like what really happened with Ice Man's "he said" "she said" court case. The characters are presented simply, true-ly, and without a lot of bs or fluff. The filming and shoots are well-done, the characters and scenes believable. The action is linear and satisfying, and the film ends on a fine note. The only weakness is in the scene of the final fight. The fight is not interesting; except for the final few moments, you can hardly make out what they're doing, and it's not very dramatic. But overall, I would recommend this to fans of this genre.

If You Need This DVD, Buy It For Less Than $5.00! February 4, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Like I said, if you need this DVD, make sure you get a cheap used copy. The story & theme is a rehash of other movies, but if you take this movie with a grain of salt (In other words...don't have HIGH expectations!!), you might enjoy it. Welsey Snipes & Ving Rhames together in a boxing / prison movie with a touch of Mafia...the mere thought is laughable (so is the fairy tale "he lived happily ever after" ending!! LOL), but I found the movie mildly entertaining, and shoot the price was right. On a scale of 1-5, I give the movie 2.5 stars, but it's not bad for the price. Let's hope 'Undisputed 2' is much better...that shouldn't be too hard! Peace, SD (Chakasworld)
I really like this movie.... August 25, 2004 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Okay, i first saw this movie on cable and since they keep showing it every couple of months, i've probably seen it a total of 4 times. And i have to say...I really like this movie. I'm not a boxing fan, nor am i a fan of prison movies, but there's something about watching Wesley Snipes' understated performance as Huchens that captures my attention. I also enjoyed the side characters (Falk as Mendy is hilarious) and it's their interaction with one another (Snipes and his sidekick Ratbag...lol...Rhames and his cellmate...what's his name?... bad guy from Last Mohicans...oh yeah...Studi) that really make the movie. Needless to say, i don't want to wait for cable to show it again, i'm gonna buy the *^%$! DVD.
