Very disappointing

Rating: 3/10 (13 January 2014)

I was very much looking forward to seeing this movie. It was billed as a comedy, it was about boxing and has Stallone and De Niro in it. Essentially my dream movie. I was expecting an Expendable 2 type, self deprecating, funny movie with some good boxing action thrown in.
But I was very disappointed. The jokes, well the ones you haven't already seen in the trailer, aren't funny which was surprising for a story line that was so absurd. They could have done a lot more funny self-deprecating jokes.
The story was very simple, I mean there we zero surprises in the story.
The characters were empty, by the time the fight came you really didn't care about them, or the fight.
The best part of the movie was the Tyson & Holyfield cameo at the end. Which was 10 seconds long. I was happy when this movie was over.
Very disappointing. If this didn't have Stallone and De Niro I think it would have gone straight to video.
