In&nbsp;<em>Southpaw<\/em>, boxer Billy Hope (Jake Gyllenhaal) hits rock bottom after the violent death of his wife (Rachel McAdams) and must rebuild himself to get back the custody of his daughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the cynic in each of us may be tempted to shred to pieces this simple tale that sometimes dangerously flirts with indecent tear-jerking,&nbsp;<em>Southpaw<\/em>&nbsp;is saved by some powerful moments and five-star acting from Jake Gyllenhaal and Forest Whitaker. Against all odds the film\u2019s blood, sweat and tears have unique chemistry but its uninspired narrative and emotional shortcuts prevent it from giving the final knockout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Southpaw<\/em>&nbsp;takes place in New York but most of the filming was actually in Pittsburgh PA.
