In the near future, robot boxing is a top sport. A struggling promoter feels he's found a champion in a discarded robot. Real Steel is one of my favorite movies that Hugh Jackman has starred in besides the X-Men Franchise, Prisoners, Les Miserables and a bunch of others movies it's basically Rocky meets Terminator and honestly who the hell doesn't love Robots? This film brought some life in all those boxing movies sure it repeats some stuff from Rocky like the ending for example but still one hell of an awesome movie and i would love to see a sequel after Hugh is done with Wolverine and i think it might happen cause the movie was directed by Shawn Levy the director of the Night at the Museum Trilogy. They also did one hell of job with the robots you feel like they are real and not just some cgi or puppet in a science fiction movie the animatronics in these film are outstanding and so are the robots and the human characters. It really deserves a much high score on Rotten Tomatoes than just a drop dead 59% Atom for the win!!!

Came across this film a few months ago and was blown away. Simple premise of lonely boy desperate for a father figure finds solace and friendship in a fighting robot. Yes it's cheesy and some what predictable but the whole film made me smile throughout. Hugh Jackman plays the wayward father looking for direction while his son is looking for the father he never had.The robot is the pragmatist that brings them together. Fight scenes are good and the interaction between the characters is charming. Many films of father and son coming together rely on a love interest this thankfully doesn't . So sit down and enjoy and film that will leave you feeling warm inside.

In the near future, robot boxing is a top sport. A struggling promoter feels he's found a champion in a discarded robot with the helps of his son. Yes, Hugh Jackman is a struggling father who begins his past career of boxing a broken robot that symbolizes himself. Despite the extreme stupidity described, the film is very entertaining and, surprising, not as sappy as it sounds. Hugh Jackman knows the kind of film he stars in, not trying too hard to be something he's not in this film. He delivers a fun performance that sets-off his annoying son. Being a Hollywood blockbuster, "Real Steel" gives an entertaining show that touches on emotional issues that children and certain film-goers can appreciate. I wouldn't' rush back for more, but for what it's worth, "Real Steel" is a knock-out (pun intended).
