Warrior is one of those films, you've got nothing to do on a Friday night, so you take a trip to the video store (even though your getting a DVD) and you pick it up and think, I'll give this a try.
I get in the car and 2 mins down the road i've forgotten what movie I've chosen, in fact I'm contemplating a game of FIFA. No no I'll put this on.
Wow, what can I say. I was expecting another Rocky in the Octagon and what I got was a film that delivers on so many emotional levels. Not only does it do this but it does it without a single molecule of cheese. That's where this film has succeeded for me. I'm not big on sports films and hands down this is the best of the genre I have seen.
Lastly, I would also like to point out that Nick Nolte's performance is arguably one of the best performances i've seen on screen. His character is simple, with little complexity yet the acting was anything but.
Highly recommended to anyone.
