Great movie, good morals
I saw this film at the premier at Sundance. I went into the film expecting to see another typical action packed boxing movie. However, I was greatly impressed with the film, it was a lot better than I had expected. The performances by all the actors were solid. I was especially impressed with Dakota Goyo, who played Teddy, and apparently so was Josh, who commented on how easy it was for him to play his own role because of the level of talent Dakota has. Also, all three female characters played solid roles, which enhanced the depth of Josh Hartnett’s character. This movie was able to provide a great story without the usual trash that’s seen in many of the films we see today. This movie emphasized the importance of values and honesty which I think everyone needs to be reminded of.
Better than expected
Okay, the film is actually pretty good and a far cry from what I expected, though nowhere near as good as a 10 Star film that I’ve seen listed on many of these comments. The film is passable, and even enjoyable at times, with a good message and a meaningful story about fathers and sons at its core.Hartnett, like the rest of the cast, do a serviceable job and the acting is pretty good throughout the film, though people thinking Jackson will win or even be nominated for a flick like this need to put down the Kool Aid. It’s a nice little film, a modest surprise even, but hardly anything award worthy.
