Film che cerca di puntare sull'emozionale, a tratti banale... ma l'idea di fondo non è per niente male e da qualche parte c'è anche un po' di poesia. E no, non tra gli occhioni di "Kate" o del bambino ma del piccolo robot che pare avere un'anima e capire ma nonostante ciò è solo un mucchio di ferro. Perfortuna, altrimenti dov'era la poesia?

Completely paint-by-number w/ its most similar predecessor being Stallone's arm-wrestle pic Over the Top, one can only explain the high marks critics r giving this by assuming their low expectations led 2 overwhelmingly pleasant surprise that this has got far more "heart" (i.e. glibly contrived sentiment) than something as soulless & enervating as Transformers. It's another Rocky for 12 year old boys, & although that's not saying much, it is indeed far better than another Michael Bay pummel-fest

Solidne kino familijne. Oparte na utartych schematach, jednak oglada sie zaskakujaco bezbolesnie, nawet, gdy ma sie wiecej niz kilka/kilkanascie lat.

Too much crap

Oddly enjoyable.

A very genuine concept that never got off the ground because it was unsure of what exactly it was. It was a watered down, child like version of Rocky that tried to come at you with explosive and engaging characters, but fundamentally it failed to do so at all. Jackmans Charlie was all over the place as far as characterization, and who actually went the full 127 minutes without getting annoyed at least once with the kids trash talking attitude?

Tamam gazi veriyorsun fakat daha mantikli olmaliydin.

It's not as annoying and much more fun than most people would make you believe.

pretty stupid cliche filled boxing movie.. but still fun to watch, some nice fight scenes..

In what is probably my favourite boxing movie so far, Elfman and Eminem added a lot of drive to the film. Despite the film's subject, style and theme, this was much needed as the boo-hoo-hoo father/son story was an unexpected turn-off and unnecessary slowed the film down. Fortunately, an inspired Jackman manages to save even that part - and Lilly is lovely as ever, of course. In the end, the film gets a 'Good' rating, but owes it mostly to the special effects - a very rare thing for me to say.

A really boring and predictable plot. Atleast they could have used "Eye of the tiger" in the training section. Was there a suggestion that the robot has selfconcious moments? And those kids-teach-parents-how-to-live stuff are so 1990s. The ending was better than expected, but that doesn't mean it was good.

I can hardly remember the last film I have watched before this that was so filled with blockbuster clichés. You figure out the entire storyline by the time the opening credits are over. Not a must see in my opinion but after all it has Hugh Jackman and fighting robots. The kid is annoying though.

Not original, but I enjoyed it quite the same. The kid was a little annoying in the beginning, but the longer the movie went, I enjoyed even his character. Real Steel, you did your job, which left me with a huge smile at the end.

So emotional robotic movie:)

Stupid story but with good special effects! Entertaining.

So Shawn Levy and John Gatins tries to recreate Rocky with robots. And that is all. I mean, the concept of robot fighting having replaced human boxing is, honestly, not that far-fetched in today's health-dominated society. It is rather average, though. There is nothing really thought provoking or overly interesting going on. One thing it did have, though, was some nice CGI; the robots (and their fights) were stunning. Otherwise, I wasn't really moved or emerged in the film, it was simply there.

i really wanted to hate this movie so much. i watched it just for the sheer fact that i wanted to hate it and write a scathing, mouth foaming review so insane that it would bewilder and entertain people from lands far away. instead all i can say is that i cant understand why rock 'em, sock 'em robots the movie is actually mildly entertaining.

A surprisingly entertaining film that is a dramatic sci-fi sports hybrid. Surpasses its mediocre script filled with cheesy dialogue because it's so moving and fun. Not among the best of 2011 by any means, but it's memorable.

Never thought I'd say that but I really enjoyed watching Real Steel.

Better than expected, but Jackman as Looser-Nerd, WTF? Doesn´t fit at all. The kiddoe was annoying, but the fights were really cool. Watchable but not top notch.

* Casting, Acting : 6 * Script : 6 * Directing, Aura : 9 * Ease of Viewing : 8 * Naked Eye : 7

Let down by some cheese and a lot of product placement, this actually manages to be a decent father-son-bonding/fighter movie.

"Over the Top" with robots...

Why this gets love I won't question. I still need a little faith in humankind.

"Over the Top" New Generation with Rocky concept.

i support kids fighting after seeing this movie.

As a film, this is incredibly generic father-son, feel good, boxing film that tries very hard to use every cliche in the book while still being about robots. This includes a former boxer-turned trainer, dad watching after his kid for X amount of time, and many more I cant list in the character limit. Yet, the robot fights are very well done. It's worth watching just to see how much better these robots fights are compared to the awful car-crash fights from the Transformers films. 2.5/5

An annoying kid and all the boxing cliches in the world can't take away the fun of seeing robots punching at each other.

it's ridiculously funny :)

"Will Sylvester Stallone receive residuals from Real Steel?" - Nick Schager

lovely!

And here I thought that I came so well prepared. I already knew it was 'Rocky' with Robots and a bit of 'Over the Top' crammed in there. I knew it would stray from robot mayhem into amateur writing hour, and Jackman, Lilly and some piss annoying kid would stutter through the toebreakingly bad dramatic scenes. But I didn't see the breakdancing robot coming. I DIDN'T SEE IT COMING!! OH MY FUCKING GOD, HOW CAN I NOT HAVE SEEN THAT COMING?!?!

soyle guzel konulari nasil pic ediyorlar anlamiyorum.

Rocky with robots. Much better than I thought it would be.
