I went with my father to see this movie, while my wife was in U.S.A waiting for our first child... and mean while my eyes was wet during the film i thouht... i wish i could be a father like this... i love having a father like that...god bless the Braddock family

I watched the movie Saturday evening and it was one of those where you cry the whole way through. Most of us could only dream of meeting a man that will go through all that because he loves his family so much

I just watched "Cinderella Man" last night, and I felt compelled to find out more about him. He was such an inspiration to many. God bless him and his family.

I saw the show only yday and was moved enough to seek out the website and read up more about JB. He's an exceptional man, an inspiration to all.

an inspiration for everyone thanks mr. braddock because you teach that anyone can do a miracle

Just returned from a Church week end which started with a viewing of the film and followed by a weekend of discusiing the values of Jim Braddock, his honesty, his valour, his conviction and his inner belief in himself and his family. A truly inspiring week end initiatred by an awesome film avidly watched by all those gathered for a week end's bonding.

Any man who has a family like Jim did, understands you will do anything you can for them. You never know when everything you have can disappear, but as long as you have your family. You can keep your head up proud and keep on punching.

i was recently asked to write a speech about the man i think created unity through diversity in the 20th century. what a topic for a 15year old! i watched the movie Cinderella Man, and thought how great this man was! and then it clicked. write a speech about J.J.B!! i did that and then wondered: how did he create unity through diversity? once i read the messages sent in, i knew how. JJB is truly an inspirational man, one who believed in himself and now, people who believe in themselves...

I don't agree with an upper statement. Of course he should be listed as top 10 boxers through all time, just because he was a white man, doesn't mean the opposite. White men used to be more engaged in boxing in earlier days; Braddock, Jake de la Motta etc.

this guy did what anybody would do for his/her family by using his talent and making the most of it...interesting movie though..

I would just like to say what a wonderful inspiration Mr. James Braddock is. What a great tribute to a man which seems he was not only an all time great fighter but also a man of great honour and dignity and more importantly a great family man. Reading about Mr Braddock inspires me to be a better person. Thank you.

Very good site! I like it! I just wanted to pass on a note to let you know what a great job you have done with this site..Thanks!

I just saw the movie and was truly impressed about the life of this man. Certainly a role model of what a man and father should be. Too bad there are not any people like him in this day and time.

first of all JJ Braddock was a HUMAN then he was an american ... and then a champ...that's trully remarcable "imposible is nothing" believe it

Just seen the movie. cinderella man, it cut real deep into my soul, haveing parents who went through the 1920&30s the depression years, I have a better understanding. and I loved the performance of Russel Crowe he gave a 100 percnt, I don't care what the press said about him and his temper, his dedecation to the film industry is the best.

A tribute to all that have strugled in life, may this be an inspiration.

It was a very brave man! REALLY CINDERELLA MAN! You know today that DREAMS COME TRUTH...

I boxed a bit when i was younger, and have always been interested in reading about the great fighters of the ring, as i watched the movie my spirit was lifted by by what i think is the best boxing movie ive ever seen, a fitting tribute to a great fighter and family man.

Since the childhood Jimmy was my idol ! Now I am local medium-weight boxer ! I am 28 years old and hope that one day I will have the power to afirm myself in "The Braddock Style"

love the movie!

es bueno conocer una historia de alguien tan maravilloso y que lucho ante las adversidades por su familia.. es inspiradora, y es bueno saber que la vida siempre te da segundas oportunidades

Great great man! A true champion in boxing and in real life. Despite all he has been through, he really never lost sight of his goals, and what is important to him!

The movie is great too!

Ron Howard/ Russel Crowe, you guys did Justice for this man! Two Thumbs UP! Great Movie!

I really love the movie about J. J. Braddock! And he's my rollemodel! I do boxing to and I really look up on him! Thanks!
