The boxing scene here may be my favourite ever boxing scene in any movie. 10 years 4 months ago -

While I absolutely LOVED the boxing scene (the build-up, choreography, and comedic timing is simply perfect) and the ending, the rest of the film is a bit hit-or-miss. At the end of the day, I just don't find Chaplin as laugh-out-loud funny as Keaton. Still unquestionably a classic, though. 9 years 7 months ago
