Four out of five star
Just the name of Jake Gyllenhaal’s character in Southpaw — Billy Hope — tells you this film has no intention of pulling punches when it comes to time-honored boxing movie clichés.
Jake Gyllenhaal is on a roll. Onscreen in Nightcrawler, Enemy and Prisoners, and onstage in Constellations, Little Shop of Horrors and If There Is I Haven’t Found It Yet, he shows the kind of versatility and commitment that should have won him prizes. The awards didn’t materialize, but it’s just a matter of time. Maybe it’ll be for Southpaw, a retro, in-your-face fight drama that dribbles into sappiness. Much, though far from all, is redeemed by Gyllenhaal’s virtuoso performance. The actor, 34, trained for four months and gained 15 pounds of muscle to play light-heavyweight champ Billy Hope. But the externals — scars, tattoos and slurred voice — don’t begin to suggest the emotional depths Gyllenhaal brings to the part of a bruiser on the ropes.
Success, failure and redemption are three prerequisite rounds of any boxing film. The successful ones, such as Raging Bull or The Fighter, find a way to make you care between those bouts.
By those standards, Southpaw fits like a glove. It has an orphaned boy from Hell’s Kitchen in New York who has just become the lightweight boxing world champion for the fourth time, his beautiful wife who has risen from that same life and is now a constant companion through the good times and bad, and a well-adjusted daughter who dotes on him. And then appears a brash challenger, follows a senseless encounter that ends in death, and a life comes apart. Our boxer finds his wife gone, and daughter taken.
Director Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, The Equalizer), working from an overcooked screenplay by Kurt Sutter (Sons of Anarchy), knows he’s not in the same ring with Raging Bull, Rocky, Million Dollar Baby and The Fighter, though the script unblushingly mooches from each of them. Still, Fuqua shuffles the tools of the genre with genuine flair. As tragedy lands Billy in the pits of desperation, poverty and child-custody battles, Fuqua shifts focus from Billy’s crooked agent (Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson) to a trainer-savior, Tick Wills (the expert Forest Whitaker), who teaches Billy a new fighting style that doesn’t involve stopping punches with his head.
The powerful boxing scenes, vividly shot from Madison Square Garden to Vegas by Mauro Fiore and edited by John Refoua, help distract from the father-daughter scenes that outdo The Champ (the Wallace Beery original and the Jon Voight remake) for gooey sentiment. Amazingly, Gyllenhaal never cheats on his character’s sense of dignity. Against the odds, he keeps you in Billy’s corner. That’s a champ.
Now, think really hard. Know of any other cinematic pugilists who would also take a beating until they got their opponent right where they wanted them, then BOOM! Knockout! That’s pretty much what happens here. At a post-fight press conference, contender Miguel “Magic” Escobar implores Hope to give him some hope and grant him a shot at the title. Again, it’s a scene reminiscent of just about every boxing movie you’ve ever seen. And now you can watch “southpaw” streaming online here
