Critic Reviews of "Champs"
RogerEbert.comMarch 13, 2015It's like a thesis whose next draft would be destined for greatness.
VarietyMarch 13, 2015[A] clearly sincere but achingly cliched look at what's good and bad about the sport and the society that sanctions it.
Los Angeles TimesMarch 12, 2015No one documentary could ever really encompass all that's fascinating and distressing about boxing as a kingmaking sport, a violent cultural phenomenal and a shady business. The slickly made "Champs" certainly tries, with varied success.
New York Daily NewsMarch 12, 2015The historic, socioeconomic, racial and even poetic roots of pugilism are addressed, and celebs and sportwriters weigh in, but often it's the fighters themselves who best sum up the appeal of "the sweet science."
New York TimesMarch 12, 2015Now and then this documentary by Bert Marcus rises above mere promotion, leaving you wishing it had tackled the sport's difficult questions in more depth.
AV ClubMarch 12, 2015Each fighter gets time to tell his story, and each is candid and thoughtful (and in some moments regretful) about their histories.
The Film StageFebruary 23, 2016Like a young kid channeling all of the rage that comes from growing up in poverty without a mentor, Champs suffers from throwing a bunch of stuff at the wall.
Under the RadarMarch 28, 2015It's just hard not to imagine that it might been better as a shorter 30 For 30 episode focusing on one of the three boxers.
We Got This CoveredMarch 15, 2015Uneven and too brief for its brawny subject, Champs fails to be an affecting underdog story or an in-depth look at boxing's many problems.
Film Journal InternationalMarch 13, 2015Interesting, accessible documentary about the boxing world is revealing but stymied by its own slickness.
CraveOnlineMarch 12, 2015What really differentiates this documentary from others is that it doesn't just stick to the cliche boundaries of the backstories of the boxers, it goes into the sociological and cultural factors of boxing.
NOW TorontoMarch 12, 2015Directing a critical eye at the sociology and predatory business of boxing, the doc is periodically interesting but also unconvincingly broad.
