After seeing the trailer I never intended to see this movie. I assumed it will be full of cliche and cheesy. But what a nice surprise! After reading all the positive reviews posted on movietickets I decided to go with my 13 years old daughter. We both loved it and she is very difficult (she love unicorns). We both came out of the theater is a such good place. Ending is perfect.
The story is excellent, the fact there is not a drop of blood during the fight scene made them watchable and most important enjoyable. And because of the violence of this sport I am so glad they choose this direction, it gave an other perspective of this sport. I am a woman and I loved all the fight scenes and wanted more. I felt in the cage with the fighters. Tom hardy abs are magnificent. Nick Nolte is amazing. Somehow I am wondering if it's not better than "the fighter"!
I wish AMC will refund my ticket. This was a perfect waste of my money and time. The story is completely obvious, cute kids, mean military man, good policeman, bad drunk that become nice....and a monster/alien....STUPID!!! Shame on Spielberg for associating his name to that thing...
Beside a very good casting... beautiful costumes ...Christina is beautiful and very talented....Cher... face is not moving at all. Her acting is miserable. Look like a big musical video.. no surprise in the story. Just a waste of time....
