Chase a Fortune

About This Movie

Chase a Fortune is this quirky little comedy from '85 that really plays with the contrasts in its main character, Tiger. You’ve got this tough-as-nails boxer who’s actually a softy at heart. The film has a whimsical tone that balances the sport's grit with some light-hearted moments. When Tiger injures a reporter, his commitment to care for her—while navigating his own identity—is oddly compelling. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it carries a charm, particularly in the scenes where Tiger tries to adjust to life outside the ring. You can feel the practical effects in the boxing scenes, which add a tangible quality to it. The performances, particularly from the lead, give it a unique warmth that lingers beyond the laughs.

A unique blend of comedy and sports themes.Explores personal growth and responsibility.Interesting character dynamics and performances.
