Just saw it. It was great; Marky Mark did a really good job and Christian Bale should win Best Supporting Actor IMO. Great flick...

Slingah 01-01-2011 10:29 PM

packed theater today...
really good film, Mark Wahlberg plays it like he usually does in almost every role I've seen him in but it works.....and Christian Bale steals the show. Two thumbs up from me & the Dragonlady...:uhuh::uhuh:

I saw it last night in the Flick theatre in lexington which had one scene in the movie.

Great movie and accurate portrayal of Lowell as well.

Definite guy flick that rocks.

good movie
even the wife thought so
I think they did a decent job making it and not Hollywooding it

Saw it yesterday with Fishchick! Great, great movie! Tops as boxing movies go...liked it alot better than Rocky.....not as much corn and syrup!

Tagger 02-27-2011 12:02 PM

How'd you like Micky Ward's sister's in the movie ? dammm .. tough to pick just one .. My wife's work the women there all loved this movie .. alot going on ,, fight in the ring ,, fighting for life in the streets (crack),, love story ,, comic relief ---> sister's ..mother,, poor husband .. I think this movie has a great chance at winning something .. saw it twice .. second time was just as good .

BigFish 02-27-2011 12:15 PM

Angie and I have been laughing about them! They must be very proud of how they were portrayed.....they were like a pack of ugly wildcats!:rotf2:

SurfCaster413 03-15-2011 11:55 PM

Just got to see the movie tonight thought it was awesome. Christian bale was excellent.

Rob Rockcrawler 03-26-2011 08:53 AM

Watched it last night. Awesome flick. I assumed the movie was going to end with the Gatti fights though. Those are some of the best bouts i have ever seen.

bart 03-27-2011 01:03 AM

I called Christian Bale winning Best Supporting Actor :uhuh:

(not a hard call though)

chefchris401 06-13-2011 01:36 PM

finally saw the movie, it was great, bales performance was great, excellent moive and very well done.

RIJIMMY 06-20-2011 02:23 PM

watched it last night. very good flick and agree Bale was incredible. The sister and mom were hilarous.
I knew nothing of the story and was happy with the ending.

MarshCappa 07-22-2011 11:20 AM

Just saw this for the first time last night. Very good movie but I thought the fight scenes were just ok. Obviously the story line was great but the actual fights did no justice.
