Genre: Dramas

There is more plot and character development in Michael Jackson’s music video for “Beat It” than in “Undisputed,” a forgettable prison boxing movie.

It should have been more memorable, but at least it doesn't stumble in the ring.

Too slow for a younger crowd, too shallow for an older one.

The only thing indisputable here is that lots of talent has been frittered away on a really silly and formulaic story.

While [Hill] has learned new tricks, the tricks alone are not enough to salvage this lifeless boxing film.

Overly stylized with lots of flash black-&-white freeze frames reminiscent of a pseudo-hip luxury car commercial, (it's) at its worst when it's actually inside the ring.

Trying to be the black "Rocky" in prison, this movie is over-the-top and ridiculous to the point of being cartoony.

[Staying awake] is going to be your problem as you wait through this lifeless movie in the hope that the ending boxing match will be worth the wait. It isn't.

A lean and mean thriller that, no disrespect intended, is in the best B-movie tradition.

Boasting a solid cast and efficient direction from industry veteran Walter Hill, the film delivers what it promises but absolutely nothing more.

This 90-minute dud could pass for Mike Tyson's E! True Hollywood Story.
