Great action performance by Christian Bale as always, but I didn't like it that much... disappointingly it's more about drugs then boxing.
7/10 stars

Great acting all around, but Bale definitely stole the screen in this one. A little hammy at times, but I think this was a decent underdog story.

A film I have seen several times, I watched this upon its release in 2010 and then was hooked on it as a young teenager, I instantly became a Wahlberg and Bale fan over night for the parts they played, as well as a boxing fan of “Irish Micky Ward” a great underdog drama story, great soundtrack and award worthy acting. I absolutely loved it.

Christian Bale is known for transformative purposes, and this is one of my favorites. His Dickie Ward is an absolute livewire, spasming with energy and haunted by the ghost of Greatness that he doesn’t realize isn’t there. The movie can sometimes teeter on the edge of caricature (Melissa Leo falls just on the right side, while the Greek chorus of sisters falls way on the wrong side), but feels largely accurate overall. I would have recommended some different music choices–David O. Russell tries to imitate Scorsese in the soundtrack, but the songs are often just too on-the-nose to be anything but distracting. (See: “Here I Go Again,” “Good Times Bad Times,” “Back in the Saddle,” etc.)

This movie felt like it was more about Dick than Micky for a long time but i liked it..I was expecting little more to tell the truth but as the time goes by it gets better and better. 7.3/10

Christian Bale absolutely stole this film and it is a shame that he was only nominated for best supporting actor.

O Mark Wahlberg e a Amy Adams estiveram brilhantes neste filme, mas tiveram o azar de também entrar no filme um tal de Christian Bale que os eclipsou por completo.

This movie was great. The characters were very believable and the plot was just great. I enjoyed the movie and thought that Christan Bale did a great job acting like a crackhead and he even looked the part. Mark W did a fantastic job however his character only really had one part that showed true emotion. See this movie.

I love you Christian Bale, i love you so much. And big respect to Micky and Dicky and of course Marky Mark because he put so much energy to this movie, i mean for real he ended up producing it that is what i have heard. Great movie about brothers! Enjoy it!

This one somehow managed to slide on by me until now. I LOVE both leads and everything they do, yet it took me over a decade to see this movie. It is rock solid. Not anything unlike other top of line sport dramas, but it executes it really well. I am excited for when I get back around to revisiting.

Rating: 4/5 - 8.5/10 - Would Recommend

The Fighter is raw, dirty and great. You can smell the cigarettes and sweat in the air while watching this, and I love it. All performances are great; Bale and Wahlberg bring their A-game as you would expect. I think even though it is about dudes boxing, I would say the MVP here for me was Amy Adams. She is someone you want by your side during any hard moments in your life.
