I Am Ali (PG)

Documentary, Biography, Sport

Unprecedented access to Muhammad Ali's personal archive of "audio journals" as well as interviews and testimonials from his inner circle of family and friends are used to tell the legend's life story.


The critical consensus

The word 'icon' is overused but as this charming Muhammad Ali portrait shows, occasionally it's utterly warranted.

****(*)Angie Errigo, Empire Online, 24/11/2014

It floats by like a butterfly and stings like one too.

**(*)(*)(*)Siobhan Synnot, The Scotsman, 24/11/2014

The legendary boxer is still the greatest, even in a flyweight film.

***(*)(*)Geoffrey MacNab, The Independent, 27/11/2014

Clare Lewins has created a respectful documentary about Muhammad Ali, with interviews and the boxer’s own homemade tape recordings.

***(*)(*)Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 27/11/2014

The result is affectionate, inspiring and touching, if a touch too reverential.
