Without any shadow of a doubt i was completely, and utterly shocked by my sheer love for this film. The trailer simply does no justice to this masculine masterpiece. Any expectations i had as i walked into the screen to sit through this brute of a film, were simply blown away by the acting, directing and plotting of this piece of cinema magic.
When will Tom Hardy cease to impress us? Little could have asked from him for this film, meerly to act tough, keep schtum, and give some grisly stares, but his acting in this will leave you speechless, the looks he puts across, the emotion he transfers to you leaves you perched, tilting, on the very edge of your seat.
It has its moments when the Hollywood factor sets in, however, these can be shrugged off by a touching and emotive storyline giving a solid backbone to the film. The small pieces of cheesiness and flash scenes do little to take away from a brilliant cinema experience. A must-see on the big screen, DVD will simply not do jsutice to this massive hit!
Unfortunately for Hardy it doesn't quite live up to the 'Fighter's' big name, and it would be a huge shock if any oscar nods were given, but don't let that take anythign away from what has turned out to be a massive hit not only with men, but any females who feel they need a little pure muscle and testosterone in their world!
