This film follows the story of a once great boxer forced out of the ring by the changing of times. In the near future, robots fight in boxing matches to accommodate the public's fascination with gore and violence. After a failed boxing match with Ambush and a bull he discovers he has a long lost son. He agree's to take the child for a few months while trying to continue his failed attempts at finding and using robot boxers. This film was directed by Shawn Levy. This is a different film from his other previous film projects. It is well film, and edited. The computer generated robots were well done for this film. Real Steel was amazingly done. His stylings were created to make the character a sympathetic under dog that audiences could cheer for. The story is reminiscent of Rocky, but with a science fiction twist. The plot is unique and imaginative. There is an unanswered confusing question of Real Steel; is he a pure robot, or is he a shadow robot with human emotions? The actors were good and had good chemistry, but the characters were unusual. The slim ball was the leading hero for this film. The foster parents for the child, Max Kenton, were out of place characters and actors. This is also a unconventional sport's film, so it does play a specific audience.
Hugh Jackman plays the leading role of Charlie Kenton. Charlie was a boxer who was forced out of the boxing ring. He finds his former gory in finding robots and boxing them in failed matches. Hugh is a great actor in this role. He turns a slim ball into someone that can be cheered for. Dakota Goyo plays the role of Max Kenton, Charlie's son. Now the trouble with child actors is that you either like them, or you hate them. Dakota looks like a younger version of Justin Bieber. He is a great actor who makes it believable that he is Charlie's son. He can be annoying because of his stubbornness, but is adorable to watch. Evangelina Lily plays the supporting role of Bailey Tallet. She is entertaining, but her character wasn't fully explored through the film. The film was mainly centered around Charlie and Max, so most of the other characters didn't spend much time being portrayed in the film. Like the foster parents. They appeared mostly just to fill space. When the foster mother should've argued about Max's safety, and having him being sold, she just stood there and smiled.
I give this film a 10 out of 10 stars! It has a great story plot, even with the few small inconstancies. It is a great story of the under dog fighting against all odds, and coming out on top. This film has a realism to it that isn't used in most modern films.
