A glimpse of what Sly could have been
This is a real hidden gem of a film. Thought provoking, intelligent and times indignant, without resorting to sentimentality.

Contrast this,with the commercially lucrative but artistically meaningless “Crash, Bang, Wallop” movies that Stallone became synonymous with in the 1980s.

Stallone can act when he wants to, and FIST amply demonstrates this wasted potential.

Based (very loosely) on the life of the Teamsters boss, Jimmy Hoffa, FIST charts the rise and fall of a Trade Union leader. A cautionary tale of how noble causes can be sullied by ambition and hubris.

I highly recommend it, if only to convince others that Stallone occasionally turned in a credible performance without the promise of a big pay day.

We’re not like any other union
Jimmy Hoffa and the Teamsters are such an important part of America they deserve their own genre. So far, there’s Hoffa, Blood Feud and Fist. Sylvester Stallone was of one of three great actors privileged to play the Hoffa character, although in this movie Hoffa is hidden under the name Kovacs.

This movie is really two separate tales: The Rise and Fall with 20 years lost in between.

We start at the beginning of the labor troubles: the unions are organizing to protect worker’s rights; management is resisting; management openly prays for Douglas Macarthur to seize power and re-play the Key Memorial Bridge incident.

Johnny Kovacs needs a little push of his own to make the strike effective and to get the first contract. Behind the back of Abe Belkin his partner in unionizing the truckers, Johnny sells his soul to the mob. “We had something good, Johnny?” pouts Abe at Johnny’s wedding.

Abe sticks with the union but heads out west.

We jet ahead into the future where Johnny has seized control of the union at the national level and pensioned off the former corrupt bosses but will all the deals he made bounce back at him to destroy Johnny Abe and the union they founded.

Sly Stallone renders a bravura performance in an excellent story well told.
