My Review-
If you like boxing movies, and robots then this is the movie for you. When I first saw the trailer for this movie I saw it as Rock em' Sock'em Robots which immediately had me wanting to watch the movie, plus it had Hugh Jackman, and I like some of his movies so I saw this as being one of his good movies and I was right. Although this movie was more of a father/son type movie it was done quite well, even at types that it was kind of corny I still wanted to keep watching it because the boxing matches were some of the best parts of the movie, and had me and my mom getting up and saying "oh shit:. This was a type of Rocky movie the whole time you were rooting for the underdog, what also worked for me in this movie was the supporting cast, Durand, Mackie and Lilly, even the actor who played his son did a good job in the movie, even though some of them had small parts they were helpful to the movie for Jackman and Goyo's characters. The big fight at end was the best part of the movie, the big finish for a movie that from start to finish was good. Having seen a few boxing movies and seeing how this can be considered one this would have to go on the list of my top boxing movies, this movie had me wanting more in the fights especially the last fight, the "main event" even though it was about the last 15 minutes of the movie I would have like to see more. I just guess I will have to wait for the sequel, if that ever happens.
