The Fire Inside

The Fire Inside

“The Fire Inside” is about the journey that 2 Time Olympic Gold Medal Boxing Champion Clarissa Shields took to get to the 2012 and 2016 Olympics. Miss Shields is arguably the greatest female boxing champion of all times.

Flint Michigan’s Clarissa “T-Rex” Shields is the only Olympic Boxing Champion to ever win back-to-back Gold Medals.

The movie is inspiring, enraging and at times intriguing. The movie gives you a nice glimpse into the world of boxing, dealing with a coach who dispenses “tough Love” and what it takes to make the Olympic Team and then what it takes to win a Gold Medal not once but twice. 

“The Fire Within” is the best Non-Block Buster movie playing right now. 

Check it out “The Fire Within” is definitely worth a look.

This is a 5 Star Movie!!

Mufasa: The Lion King in IMAX

Mufasa: The Lion King in IMAX

In this installment, “Mufasa: The Lion King” enlists Rafiki to relay the legend of Mufasa to a young lion cub Kiara, daughter of Simba and Nala, with Timon and Pumbaa lending their signature commentary along the way. 

The story is told in flashbacks, the story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka–the heir to a royal bloodline. The chance meeting sets in motion an expansive journey of an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destiny. Their bonds will be tested as they work together to evade a threatening and deadly foe of White Lions. The story unfolds from there…

This is a decent prequel and the younger set will be entertained, but this installment would have been better served if shown as a fully animated movie. The photorealistic animation style was ill-served. The IMAX aspects were very good.

A nice tribute to the late James Earl Jones who has loaned his voice to “The Lion King” Franchise.

This is a 3 Star Movie!!
