Real Steel

CriticsCritics: 58
AudienceAudience: 7.3

In a near future where robot boxing draws big crowds, a struggling former fighter loses his robot and reluctantly joins forces with his estranged young son. Together, they find a discarded machine and set out to rebuild and train it as an unlikely contender.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like energetic robot action, underdog competition, and a heartfelt family story; Not for you if you want an original plot or a drama without cheesy moments.
