The script for Southpaw feels like it was entirely written by an algorithm fed nothing but energy-drink commercials.
“Script was written in ketchup.”

I've seen screen savers with more depth and fewer unnecessary lens flares than Southpaw.

Southpaw: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

Southpaw has the emotional range of a fridge magnet.

Hot Take: Southpaw's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Rewatched Southpaw last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Southpaw?
Just got out of Southpaw and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Unpopular opinion: Southpaw is the most overrated film of the decade
Everyone praising the Southpaw performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Southpaw?
Look, I wanted to love Southpaw. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
