More drama than boxing!!!!!

Rating: 7/10 (12 January 2011)

It a good character study film. More of a intense drama than boxing. Whalberg is getting really good in these roles. Hope he continuous this form.
The screenplay does a really good job in making the story come alive. Also the acting of Bale is beyond doubt impressive as always. The supporting roles were good especially of the mother.
However would have been great if it had a little more boxing action. Also had a somewhat abrupt ending if i may say so.
But none the less a very good movie, especially if you are a Bale fan.
My rating 4/5
