Real Steel


The time has come where we can now take old movies and have robots replay roles originally played by real people.
Real Steel is pretty much the Rocky movie (and a bunch of other parts from movies we have seen various times) with a robot playing Sylvester Stallone.
A robot boxing promoter, Hugh Jackman, feels he's found a champion in a discarded robot. He also discovers he has an 11-year-old son, played by Dakota Goyo, who wants to know his father.
Evangeline Lilly, who we have not seen since the TV Show "Lost" stars as Jackman's love interest however this is primarily a father and son story. In other words don't go to see this if you have the hot's for Ms. Lilly.
The director tries to get us to cry once the father and son bond but we have all seen this before. Dakota Goyo however is a young actor to watch.


Verdict:
As we all boxing movie's the best scenes are the ones where fighting is taking place howvever this movie is not worth going to a theater to see.
