Entertainment Reviews:
Mr. Lee, straining, ends up delivering a sentimentalism that undermines Mr. Church's performance and this film's promise.

New York Times
Gritty authenticity goes up against cloying pathos - with the latter unfortunately emerging victorious - in the skid row drama "Cardboard Boxer."

Los Angeles Times
Emotionally powerful, unsentimental drama of a homeless man in downtown L.A., built around a subtle and heartbreaking performance by Thomas Haden Church.

Film Journal International
Delivering a fully committed, moving performance, Thomas Haden Church makes you pay attention to a figure you would otherwise pass by without a second thought.

Rating: 5/10 --
Cardboard Boxer is an underdog fighter that, despite its considerate and often good performances, often finds its punches pulled. It's a shame, too, because it could've been a knockout.

We Got This Covered
Mr. Church fully inhabits the character, making the most of Willie’s dented moral sense and his many limitations.
New York Times
Rating: 5.5/10 --
Disparate elements aren't enough to render Cardboard Boxer two films in one, but one film with a decisive and deep schism within.
