In the near future human boxing no longer exists. Robot avatars now fight in their place. Add to that a troubled father/son, and romantic relationship, and you have the basic plot for Real Steel.
This movie seemed to be in production for a long time based on the hype and trailer releases, so when it finally came out in the theatres I had little interest, and the concept felt very boring and lame. However it’s far from either. This movie has a little something for everyone, and is very well put together. Check it out if you haven’t seen it yet.
