Interesting, accessible documentary about the boxing world is revealing but stymied by its own slickness.
March 12, 2015
What 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.
March 12, 2015
Directing a critical eye at the sociology and predatory business of boxing, the doc is periodically interesting but also unconvincingly broad.

It'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.
March 12, 2015
The 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."

Like 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.
March 12, 2015
Now 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.
March 13, 2015
[A] clearly sincere but achingly cliched look at what's good and bad about the sport and the society that sanctions it.
March 15, 2015
Uneven 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.
March 12, 2015
No 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.
March 12, 2015
Each fighter gets time to tell his story, and each is candid and thoughtful (and in some moments regretful) about their histories.
March 13, 2015
It's like a thesis whose next draft would be destined for greatness.
