In the spirit of the First Rocky and The Champ, Real Steel has Real Heart!
Hugh Jackman in a total break from his usual roles, plays the estranged father of an adorable boy who fights his way back to the top. He was a former boxer, who now (in the future) fights robots instead.
The robot action is awesome - the CGI great and the acting fantastic! The first half of the story is on the slow side, but the second half had the audience cheering for ATOM the Rockin' Sockin' Robot!
This movie is very kid friendly - no sex or foul language (that I remember), but also fun for adults. It was a 3 tissue affair! Real Steel is a feel good movie the perfect antidote for the daily blues. I highly recommend it!
Action 7 Keys out of 10
Heart 10 Keys out of 10
Dakota's cuteness 10 keys out of 10
Robot cuteness 9 keys out of 10
Overall 9 keys out of 10
Reference to the Princess Bride - 10 "Storming the Castles" out of 10!
Note: I actually watched this movie before Footloose, handwrote my entry, but did not have a chance to type it until now.
