Back with us again at MuayThaiArt.com/weblog. I guess some of you might have seen this movie already. Strength and Honor, if you take a look at its trailer I’m putting below here, I think you might think the same way I do that it looks ace…and kinda like an epic gypsy film. Many think it’s the best both story and acting. Now let’s take a look at the trailer, if you haven’t seen it.


Strength and Honour theatrical trailer from YouTube.com

It does look promising right. When I first watched it, I really wanna give this one 2 thumbs up. I was over come by the vid. And the music is so touchy. Really brilliant!!

Here’s the synopsis

STRENGTH AND HONOUR tells the story of an Irish-American boxer, Sean Kelleher (Michael Madsen), who accidentally kills his friend in the ring and promises his wife that he will never box again. However, years later, when he discovers that his only son is dying of the same hereditary heart disorder which has taken his wife, he is forced to break his promise in order to raise the substantial funds needed for the surgery that could save his son’s life.

STRENGTH AND HONOUR is a human drama of love and friendship, sacrifice and devotion, set against the violent underground world of bare-knuckle boxing.

Director: Mark Mahon

Starring: Michael Madsen, Vinnie Jones, Patrick Bergin, Pat Shortt

When I first heard about this film that it was about to create a center of attention of global spectators, I was intrigued and had to see it for myself. Before I bring this here, I saw Strength & Honour twice already. The acting was outstanding!!! Except for the awful Irish accents.

So I believe overall most of the people who’ve seen it liked it. There are however complains on the actors’ bad Irish accents.

You gotta see it! It is a very brilliant and well put together film. It’s one of the best films I’ve seen all year.
