The Fighter



After weeks of not being able to post anything on this blog, here I am to tell you about The Fighter.


All I can say about this movie is that it is hilarious, I laughed the entire time! But the thing is that it's not a comedy, it's supposed to be drama, but I couldn't help myself. The situations and the conversations (more like yelling) are so real that they are funny.


It's a true story about two brothers who play boxing. The older got famous at one point in his life after winning a fight against a famous fighter, but that was all he achieved. Now comes the younger brother trying to follow on his footsteps.


Just think of a big family; everyone talking at the same time, always having an opinion about everything and always, always arguing about something... This is what you see in The Fighter... a lot! And that's what makes it so interesting, so real. The actors portrayed the characters really well, specially Christian Bale, who in my opinion, was the funniest of them all.


I liked this movie very much, would definitely watch it again but I cannot say that it is inspirational but it shows the reality of people's lives. So if you just want to be entertained, this is the movie for you!
