Product Description

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 Max (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. Visually stunning and complete with knockout bonus material, REAL STEEL is a pulse-pounding, inspirational adventure filled with heart and soul.

Amazon.com

Sometime in the not-too-distant future, boxing has been outlawed and replaced by fighting matches with robots. Big robots. Hulking, rock 'em, sock 'em mechanical robots. But if those machines are cutting edge, Real Steel sticks to an old-fashioned style of storytelling, with a tale of a down-and-out fight manager (Hugh Jackman) looking for a good 'bot to get back in the game, and get back out of debt. Hearts are further tugged by the arrival of this guy's 11-year-old son (Dakota Goyo), who hasn't seen his dad in many years but now needs tending. There's something endearing about the way nobody ever pauses to remark on the fact that they are in the presence of giant remote-controlled prizefighting robots; it's taken for granted in this cockeyed universe. Loosely inspired by a Richard Matheson-penned episode of The Twilight Zone, Shawn Levy's film is lavishly mounted and fairly ridiculous--although in this case, the human interactions are more preposterous and formulaic than the fun robot action. Jackman plays to his roguish strengths, Evangeline Lilly (Lost) gets the perfunctory love interest role, and the villains are uncomplicatedly hissable, from Jackman's good ol' boy rival (Kevin Durand) to the heavily accented owners (Olga Fonda, Karl Yune) of the most fearsome of robots, the undefeated Zeus. If you can imagine Rocky restaged with a pile of spare parts, you might be the audience for Real Steel. --Robert Horton

Real Steel - is the real deal! A good movie!!

This is an action packed, fun, and sometimes hilarious movie. If you like cheering for the underdog, this is a movie for you. Hugh Jackman does a good job in this movie. Its a movie a family can watch together.

I'm not usually a fan of movies like this, but it was damn good. It will have you cheering by the end of the movie. That's all I'm going to say without giving any spoilers.

Hearts of Steel

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 25, 2012

Writer Richard Matheson once wrote a story about the possible future of boxing. Where human boxers have been replaced by robots. And where one of the former struggles to get by in this new world with a new version of his sport. That was adapted for the Twilight Zone TV series, in an episode that starred Lee Marvin.

Now here's a feature film based on that same story.

As ever with films of short stories it just takes the original idea and goes off in it's own direction, thus it bears no resemblance to the written or tv version beyond the idea of robot boxers.

Hugh Jackman plays Charlie Kenton. Washed up former human boxer struggling to get by as a manager of robotic ones. Things are not going his way. But then fate offers him an opportunity. A former girlfriend and mother to a son he's not seen in a long time dies. The sister of said girlfriend and her husband want to take custody of the boy. All this offers Charlie a money making opportunity and a chance to get back in the robot boxing game.

So long as he looks after the kid for several months.

Things do not go as planned for either of them. But it offers Charlie one more chance to make good. In robot boxing and as a parent.

Can he take the chance?

Any movie like this will hinge on the relationship between the two main characters. And this does score highly in that regard. Thanks to a likeable and charismatic performance in the lead from Hugh Jackman. And Dakota Goyo making Charlie's son Max a smart kid who can more than hold his own when it comes to talking to and dealing with his old man. There's a great shot when they first meet which nicely symbolises the distance between them.

The rest of the cast do have their moments. Evangeline Lilly has what could have been a rather thankless role as Charlie's long time friend and possible love interest, and makes her a decent character. And the would be guardians of Max do also have their moments, especially in the last quarter of the movie.

Using both props and cgi for the robots does create a good sense of reality.

Whilst the story development is totally predictable, it does end with a great set piece that is absolutely rousing stuff [although epileptics beware some flashing lights during it] and is both credible plot wise and emotionally satisfying at the same time.

There are some moments of mild violence. And some moments some might find corny. But this ia both an entertaining character story and a fine future sports movie, and it's a very entertaining watch.

The disc has the following language and subtitle options:

Languages: English Russian Ukranian.

Subtitles: English Bulgarian Russian Latvian Lithuanian Romanian Estonian Ukranian.

It is also English audio captioned.

The disc begins with some trailers but you can skip these via the next or menu buttons on the dvd remote.

Extras are:

A commentary from the director.

A thirteen minute long feature about the making of one short scene in the film. Fascinating for those who want to know more about the production side of films because it shows how much effort goes into some very short sequences.

A four minute long feature about the making of the robots in the film.

And a three minute long blooper reel. As with a lot of these it's mostly people forgetting their lines and being silly but there are two genuinely laugh out loud moments in it. Particularly the first shot.
