sensational

Rating: Null/10 (11 August 2011)

'the fighter' is a sensational look at the true story of Micky ward and his brother Dicky eklund,mark whalberg plays Micky a troubled boxer with great potential,Christian bale plays Dicky eklund,Micky's brother and also boxing mentor.i had to see this movie due to the great reviews it had but was a little put off because it was a boxing drama,i hate boxing movies rocky was the most overrated movie ever made,needles to say the fighter is the best boxing movie ever in my opinion.i definitely think it should get movie of 2011 but we all know the kings speech(which was poor) will win.i have read a couple of reviews stating that the fighter is a carbon copy of rocky,those reviews are wrong don't listen to the reviews that hate this movie it just mans that they are rocky fan-boys. the fighter 10/10 rocky 1/10
