The screenwriter, Rai Fazio, of Sicilian background, was a boxer from the age of four, trained by his father. So he knows what he's talking about.

Reviews for Two Fists, One Heart
1 - 8 (sorted by date; Australian critics are listed first)
Top CriticTwo Fists, One Heart is an audacious, big-hearted genre piece; it punches above its weight at times, but by the final rounds of its inevitable denouement, it's firing on all cylinders.
03/20/09
Top CriticWith his deftly applied yet unassuming sense of style, Seet has given us one of the most polished Australian films to come along in some time.
03/20/09
Top CriticBrandishes the type of confidence, commercial appeal and clarity of vision all too seldom seen in Australian cinema. We should be producing movies like this 10 times a year, not once in a blue moon.
03/20/09
Top CriticAn admirable achievement, really impressive on all levels.
03/20/09
Top CriticThe themes are universal, and the simple (but not simplistic) story is delivered with considerable verve by debuting director Shawn Street and an ensemble cast that makes it zing.
03/19/09
Top CriticBoxer turned screenwriter Rai Fazio tries hard to create a father-son boxing drama based on his own experiences, but instead turns out a clichéd genre piece nicely shot with an edgy hand-held style
03/21/09
It's a familiar tale, but the performances are strong, particularly that of Fantastichini, and it's directed with real confidence by Shawn Seet. The film delivers.
