Title: Probably the best movie of 2010
Review: This has become one of my all around favorite boxing movies. Both Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale's performances are spectacular. Wahlberg plays a down on his luck boxer who though has a ton of talent, his manager/mother keeps lauding the past accomplishments of his brother Dickey (Bale) a crack addict who swears he'll have a comeback. Bale is eerily on point as an addict and shows the raw face of crack addiction with depth, (but then again did you expect any less from such an amazing actor?), Wahlberg is convincing as a boxer having prepared for the role over the course of two years. A spectacular movie well-worth seeing whether you're a boxing fan or not.
