This ethnically inclusive movie has a nice blend of Drama with some action. The relationship that develops between the inner-city teen that's a victim of circumstance and the homeless ex-boxer on the lamb, is something that gives the film a pinch of humanity that carries the viewer through to the end. Single mom's trying to raise kids, drug dealers influencing kids, bad cops, good cops, Burt Reynold's not playing feeble but a boxing trainer with plenty of fire and some very authentic cinematography makes "Shadow Fighter" a solid choice.
