Cardboard Boxer Ratings & Reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Delivering a fully committed, moving performance, Thomas Haden Church makes you pay attention to a figure you would otherwise pass by without a second thought.
Fort Worth Weekly
Kristian M. Lin
You should always be suspicious of homeless dramas that star Oscar-nominated Hollywood actors.
Under the Radar
Zach Hollwedel
Disparate elements aren't enough to render Cardboard Boxer two films in one, but one film with a decisive and deep schism within.
We Got This Covered
Will Ashton
Cardboard Boxer is an underdog fighter that, despite its considerate and often good performances, often finds its punches pulled. It's a shame, too, because it could've been a knockout.
Film Journal International
Frank Lovece
Emotionally powerful, unsentimental drama of a homeless man in downtown L.A., built around a subtle and heartbreaking performance by Thomas Haden Church.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Rechtshaffen
Gritty authenticity goes up against cloying pathos - with the latter unfortunately emerging victorious - in the skid row drama "Cardboard Boxer."
New York Times
Helen T. Verongos
Mr. Lee, straining, ends up delivering a sentimentalism that undermines Mr. Church's performance and this film's promise.
Village Voice
Simon Abrams
By emphasizing the uglier aspects of his most complex character, Lee turns an otherwise down-to-earth slice-of-life drama into an unconvincing morality play.
