Jennifer Lopez returns to the screen in the film 'Unstoppable', the directorial debut of William Goldenberg, who won an Oscar as editor for 'Argo'. Available on Prime Video, the film tells the true story of Anthony Robles, a fighter who became a champion despite having only one leg. JLo plays Anthony's mother, Judy.
“When I read the script I realized that a lot of women could identify with my character,” says the actress and singer. For Lopez, this film goes beyond a mere sports narrative: “It’s always you against yourself and not against a person. It’s always you against your thoughts or your limiting beliefs. Only by overcoming all of that can we understand that each of us can do anything we want.” Anthony Robles’ story perfectly embodies this message of resilience and self-affirmation.

The article describes an interesting film, but there are some parts that are not clear. Anthony Robles' story is certainly inspiring, but I do not know if the presence of JLo makes the film better. I wait to see how it develops.
I saw the movie and found it interesting, but in my opinion it is not entirely clear how Anthony's story is truly relevant to the message of resilience. Maybe they could have explored some aspects of his life more.
