Giving Real Steel a mere 2.5 is surely doing it injustice. Yes, the movie does not claim to have any groundbreaking plot. But its content is sincere...and entertaining. It's a Robot Rocky for sure, but it evolves into something more than that. Watching the bond between Hugh Jackman and Dakota build slowly over the passage of Adam (Atom)'s victories is as heartwarming as the victories are thrilling. Yes, it is cliche'd. But there is logic enough to defend that. The script is basic, but consistent, with no narration flaws. The direction is superb. And the performances commendable. The kids will the love the Robot Wars...and the grown ups will surely appreciate the emotional bonds. I know I missed my father when the kid looks at his dad with pride in his eyes
No clue why Shaik Ayaz has given only 2.5 stars. However, i watched this movie today. Good movie & worth watching it with kids during this festive season. Your kids will love it. Go for it.
