Consensus: While not the deepest boxing movie out there, Undisputed is successful at hitting its aspiration of being nothing more than a genre picture.

Genre: Action/Adventure

Synopsis: UNDISPUTED tells the story of an undefeated world champion prize fighter (RHAMES) who is convicted of rape and sent to prison, where he must confront and ultimately fight the reigning prison boxing...

[A] rock-hard, streamlined "B" movie.

A solid, efficient B movie that holds the screen masterfully for an all-too-brief 90 minutes.

As with any boxing movie or fight card, the main event doesn't come until the very end, and like too many pay-per-view packages the undercard is underwhelming.

We have no idea where these characters have been, so we don't care where they're going.

Too reliant on its already-dated "topicality" and listlessly coasting on a laundry list of prisonyard plot points.

...a B picture in an era that doesn't really allow for them.

A história se desenvolve de forma curiosa, mas a luta final deixa a desejar.

In a better movie, we wouldn’t feel compelled to choose which fighter to root for.

"Undisputed" could have been compelling, but it ultimately plays out as a standard prison action movie.

At 90 minutes this movie is short, but it feels much longer.

Undisputed barely rises above the ordinary, but it does combine action, prisons, and boxing, boasts a good cast, and throws in some undisguised sociopolitical commentary.

Can best be described as Animal House with bars, a fantasy musical maximum security joint.
