Cheesy & corny, but proves a huge point

Rating: 1/10 (16 January 2012)

Men also need romantic pop corn flicks like The Notebook or Twilight. That has been proved with Warrior. I've read and heard that a lot of guys have been saying how Warrior made them cry, how emotional it was. I get it.
But this movie doesn't deserve 8/10 and i think it has 8/10 because most guys rated before wiping their eyes.
Warrior brings out the big guns. Every cliché you've seen is used here. Almost every line is cheesy. Did you enjoy seeing how the teacher beats up the undefeated Russian world champion, knowing it could never happen in real life? If you did, you got clicheed good.
Did you like the ever so cheesy scenes with the kids routing in the parking lot & the principal routing in his living room? Cheesy.
Nolte was brilliant, but this movie isn't and the ratings will probably drop once people re watch it with dry eyes.
5/10, for Noltes performance, and because i enjoy fantasy. After all, it's a movie about the biggest tournament in the world where the best fighters from all over the planet fight, and the 2 finalists is a teacher who has been working out for 1 month and one ex soldier who hasn't fought since he was 10. (And the TEACHER WINS, LOL!)
