About this movie

Enter the not-so-distant future where boxing has gone high-tech - 2000-pound, 8-foot-tall steel robots have taken over the ring. Starring Hugh Jackman as Charlie Kenton, a washed-up fighter turned small-time promoter, Real Steel is a riveting, white-knuckle action ride that will leave you cheering. When Charlie hits rock bottom, he reluctantly teams up with his estranged son (Dakota Goyo) to build and train a championship contender. As the stakes in the thrill-packed arena are raised, Charlie and Max, against all odds, get one last shot at a comeback. Real Steel is a pulse-pounding, inspirational adventure filled with heart and soul.

I personally really liked this film. There's nothing else like it around, so for me, i found it very good! Yet for many out there it was awful. The story's about robots fighting and the effects are brilliant. There's no way i'm paying £12 to put it on my phone. So unless the price drops, i'll stick to my DVD on the tv.

£5 (rounded up)to buy maybe but not to rent! Digital downloads are way overpriced, how do you lot validate it? No really how? No package no physical disc to burn . No wonder the people buy illegal copies( I don't condone this ) if somebody can knock em out in a shed for a few pound and still turn a profit( or as we are told to believe to fund terrorism) . Its corporate greed! Nothing more, nothing less . Don't pay over the odds people! Wait 6months and the disc will be in your local bargain basket .
