Focusing on the ten years of Muhammad Ali’s life, between 1964 and 1974, Mann’s impressive biopic depicts him in the mists of the public, private and professional battles, which transformed him into a charismatic public figure, one of the major icons of the 20th century and the greatest of all boxers. With a career-defining and Oscar-nominated performance by Will Smith, alongside as-if-you-were-there direction by Mann, Ali ranks as one of the giants of the Hollywood boxing drama.
