Ali (2001) Netflix UK

Ali

Ali is a biographical drama that follows the meteoric rise, moral convictions, and hard-won comeback of Muhammad Ali between 1964 and 1974. Beginning with Cassius Clay’s Olympic triumph and his brash entrance into the professional ranks, the film traces how his dazzling style and outspoken persona reshaped sports and celebrity. As Clay converts to Islam, adopts the name Muhammad Ali, forges close ties with figures like Malcolm X and Howard Cosell, and navigates complicated personal relationships, his public life becomes inseparable from politics and faith. When he refuses induction into the Vietnam War on principle, Ali is stripped of his title and barred from boxing while his case moves through the courts. The story culminates in his determined effort to reclaim greatness—most famously in the “Rumble in the Jungle"—and examines how his courage, charisma, and conviction made him an enduring, controversial icon.
