Klitschko
If you are a fan of professional boxing, then you probably already know the story – or think you know the story — of these two Ukrainian brothers and their dominance of the sweet science for the past decade. But this film, from director Sebastian Dehnhardt, isn’t really about boxing; it’s about the life of the brothers outside the ring ad how that life is what allows them to be such powerhouses when the bell rings. Too say that Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko didn’t have an easy life growing up is a gross understatement yet even when Vitali takes a trip to visit the one room apartment his extended family grew up in there isn’t any remorse or regret or anger on display, It is, he says, what it is. He also lets you know that he never forgot where he came from and how much he enjoys the view of his past he has from his expensive Florida home. As for the ultimate sports question – when will the Klitschkio brothers face each other in t he ring – the film gives an answer that says more about them men than anything you will her on Sportscenter.
