How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A pulpy noir-inflected crime melodrama that uses its 3D spectacle, cable cars, aerial rescues, prize fights, to amplify the visceral thrill of a boxer protecting a woman fleeing her gangster past. It's propulsive and earnest in its way, leaning into mid-century action heroics.
