The build-up is amazing. He's listening to him breathe to know he's tired, and then that's when he knows when to attack and finish. Way to engage the audience and great writing.
I love how Will Smith communicates what’s going on inside Ali’s head so well. You can see him trying to gauge the perfect moment to cut loose with everything he has left but being sure that George is completely spent before he does. That last clinch before he attacks is great.
you didn't necessarily have to look like whoever you were portraying in biopics back then. as long as you could act and had a SIMILAR skin complexion then you were good to go
“It is over! …it is over!!..” that shit got my goosebumps working overtime. Ring side reporter announced it like Satan just got defeated at Heavens gate 😂
"George Foreman has been knocked out by Muhammad Ali, Muhammad Ali has done the impossible, he has regained the heavyweight crown which was taken from him unjustly in 1967!!"
This is forever legendary and the fact Muhammad Ali himself was apart of the process and gave his approval is even more special you’ll never see that kind of magic again 👑🐐
Looking back in this and knowing what I know.... Will did this pretty well. Rest well Mohammad Ali... You were the greatest of all time... Only time could be greater 🙏🏿😔
@@thore0007 Your opinion, which I do not share. You have no idea of the depth and breadth of his career anyway. Going on 4 decades of being a cultural icon. You might not even have that much time on the planet period.
No matter how many generations come and go, no matter how many greats rise and fall, the name Muhammad Ali will forever be remember as the greatest and will never be forgotten.
The look on the real Don Kings face after the fight was awesome. That big fake Don King smile just evaporated into a scowl in 2 seconds. Whatever the champ said to him it didn’t take long to make his point.
I love seeing this scene even more now after srring Big George Foreman and the alternate perspective with George as the protagonist and eventual hero. Two great humans and gladiators, different paths...linked forever.
Thanks to Michael Mann and Will Smith for this movie. I wish Michael Jai White got the role. Also he wouldn't have needed to train boxing. I am big fan of him. Muhammed Ali will be in our heart till the end of time. Wishing to Allah's mercy and grace upon him.
Smith portrayed Ali superbly! And imagine his pressure knowing Ali chose Smith for this role. About the same size as the Greatest at that time. He nailed his mannerisms, accent, fighting style, and iconic image.
Do you know why these types of movies are not well recognized? It is because they are more attached to reality and the public is used to movies like Rocky in which the characters receive non-stop blows without suffering any considerable damage.
In Ali's perspective Foreman Looked like a Giant brute That couldn't suffer any damage from anything Other than Ali himself, While in foreman's perspective Ali looked like the Perfect man, No damage no strength because in foreman's perspective Ali was the greatest of all time
“It is over!! It is over!! It is over!! It is over!! George Foreman has been knocked out by Muhammad Ali, Muhammad Ali has done the impossible, he has regained the heavyweight crown that was taken unjustly from him in 1967.” Man that statement from the announcer still gives me goosebumps. What a moment in history!
Hand's can't Hit what your eyes 👀 can't see float like a butterfly and sting a 🐝 bee...... Just wait until you see Muhammad Ali 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Ahh rumble young man rumble
He was the only choice. No one could have done it better, with the Exception of a Time Machine, sending Muhammed ahead in time to play himself at that age.
You can find this entire fight (the real one) on youtube, and I've watched it twice. After the 4th round ended, they had an analyst come in to give his opinion/prediction, and he said he believed Ali would knock George out in the next 4 rounds. And Ali got the knock out at the very end of the 8th round, exactly how the guy predicted.
the interview after the fight giving props to the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the final call newspaper. incredible! and Minister Farrakhan just turned 90.

Yes, show don't tell.
Good point
They really did the fight scene perfectly in this movie, punch for punch as it happend in real life, 10/10
Galiba evet
Probably but the moves don't even come close...Will should've had more training

This is one of the greatest final scenes of any movie anywhere. Perfection. The acting, the cinemaphotography to the score. Perfection.
Micheal Mann is a genious!!! THE BEST, OF ALL TIMES!!!
One of the best filmed moments in cinema. The way the music and bass kicks in gives you goosebumps.
I love how Will Smith communicates what’s going on inside Ali’s head so well. You can see him trying to gauge the perfect moment to cut loose with everything he has left but being sure that George is completely spent before he does. That last clinch before he attacks is great.
Shit got me emotional. Salif Keita's 'Tomorrow' was perfect for the ending
I agree!👍
I work out to this song.
@jakerojas4756 I used to about 7 years ago...not knowing what a word meant but it still does it for me.
Goosebumbs
I saw this movie when I was in high school. For some reason this song reminds me of those times. It fit perfectly with this movie
This is probably one of the rarest times a big name hollywood actor actually depicts a real legend accurately. His mannerisms are spot on.
Accurately my foot, it's not even close to half accurate.
@@sudemglaibasumatary6050 actually. I’d say it’s about 4/10 accurate. So I guess you’re somewhat correct
This gives me chills every time I watch it
The guy who plays Foreman looks so much more like Foreman than Will Smith looks like Ali.

@@alcottdevalte7440 you're entitled to your opinion.

Ali Bomaye. Ali Bomaye. An entire nation was chanting for Ali. Truly the greatest boxer.
Not just boxing history..but Epic sports history!

I like how they added the part where Ali told something to Don King and made him change expression. 3:36
added? Go watch the real fight; that actually happened.

Michael Mann’s use of music is greatly under-appreciated.
Idk if the new foreman movie can recreate this scene like this . This was done too perfection. This George was also perfect for the role
Watched this fight side-by-side with the original and I can say they nailed it punch for punch.
Will Smith did a great job with this movie and a lot of others! He is still one of my favorite Actors!
Whether it’s an reenactment or the real thing…. The final moments of rumble in the jungle will always give me the goosebumps 🥹🦋🐝❤️

Did you know that Michael Jai White has a movie where he plays Mike Tyson?
@@tytaggem3194 Yeah I know. It's a TV movie for HBO in 1995. He never got what he deserved.
Michael j white doesn't look nothing like Muhammad Ali,. Are you nuts??? ... I think you have a deep incessant hate towards brother will Smith.
Michael would’ve been a much more convincing choice.
If you've ever being in the ring...this is what it feels like... PERFECT!
That recreation is amazing

The goat. Miss that man fr.
Once this fight got passed the first round most of the announcers were pretty much in agreement that Muhammad Ali was in control of the whole fight.
Actually if I remember correctly Ali dominated round 1
This is Hollywood
@@maalik310 except the fight actually happened and what we see isn't too far from reality!
That is complete nonsense
@Kronorium foreman was way over-rated he was slow and flat footed ali was just scared.

_Michael Mann_ did a brilliant job with this film..!! After _Heat,_ this is one of his best...in my opinion...
I love Mr Muhammad Ali and Will Smith ❣️❣️❣️❤️❣️❤️❣️❤️❣️❤️❣️❤️❣️❤️❣️❣️
Anyone played this scene alongside "Big George Foreman" movie? it feels epic to see both perspectives. 🥊
Ali Ali Ali no one can ever be like him!!! Rest in peace king Ali !!!
Don’t forget that George Foreman is a great man too. Ali gets talked about. And he is great.
But so is Foreman
Real life Ali is so much better than the movie....can rarely be said about anyone.
1:24 shows why Ali was one of the best
It’s cool seeing how the fight went from both perspectives (the other being “Big George Forman” film)
In Ali's perspective Foreman Looked like a Giant brute That couldn't suffer any damage from anything Other than Ali himself, While in foreman's perspective Ali looked like the Perfect man, No damage no strength because in foreman's perspective Ali was the greatest of all time

Great simulation of the fight.
Got me feeling like seeing the real fight again.
As a matter of fact.
I would do that now.
Chris rock is lucky he only got a slap cuz holy shit lmao
You guys can see that to be the same big as Ali is ok, to shape like is ok but to get perform in the ring like Ali, no body could do that. ❤❤
