Movie synopsis

A retired pugilist transitions to the business side of the ropes after human boxers are replaced by robotic ones in director Shawn Levy's feature-length adaptation of the TWILIGHT ZONE episode "STEEL." Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) was a true contender when the sport of boxing was changed forever. Now, instead of humans duking it out for the masses, huge, powerful steel robots trade blows in the ring. As a result, former gladiator Charlie has been forced into the role of two-bit promoter, piecing together cut-rate fighting bots from scrap metal as he makes the rounds on the underground boxing circuit. Just when it seems that Charlie has sunken to the nadir of his career, his estranged 11 year old son, Max (Dakota Goyo), offers him the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity at a comeback by constructing and training a true champion. Now the stakes are higher than ever before, and Charlie is about to get a second chance at leaving an indelible mark on the sport he once dedicated his life to.

Editorial reviews

"[A] jaunty, well-built hybrid action/family pic....[The movie] demonstrates the way CGI-driven bot cinema can fruitfully coexist with father-and-son bonding cinema to create charming entertainment -- part warm hugs and part cold clang." -- Grade: A-
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (10/14/2011)

3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Underneath the busy, noisy action beats a human heart pumping with the red-blooded emotions that have worked for boxing films since the original CHAMP first grabbed moviegoers in the '30s."
Box Office - Pete Hammond (10/03/2011)

"Jackman is predictably raffish and swaggering..."
Movieline - Stephanie Zacharek (10/06/2011)

"Levy, with Sugar Ray Leonard adding some punch to the boxing sequences, makes you actually care about the robots..."
Los Angeles Times - Betsy Sharkey (10/07/2011)

3 stars out of 4 -- "[T]he movements of the robots are superbly choreographed....It has characters, it matters who they are, it makes sense of its action, it has a compelling plot."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (10/05/2011)

3 stars out of 5 -- "Jackman's solid, the kid's likeable and the climactic fight is a prizewinner. Only those with a heart of tin could resist."
Total Film - Jamie Graham (11/01/2011)

"The film is punctuated by mechanical fights which are well directed by director Shawn Levy and certainly amp up the excitement, and Hugh Jackman and Dakota Goyo hit all the right notes..."
Sight and Sound - Kim Newman (12/01/2011)

Dang, I want a robot like that! Excellent entertainment for the family!

 | Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

I don't know which I like better. The fact that they've made the game "Blockheads" in to a movie or the charm of the a boy relating to his father.

I liked this movie. Sure it's an old plot, but this new spin is very pleasing entertainment wise.

I loved the machines. I loved that this was a down to earth, not other worldly, story about modern robots. Well done! The special effects seemed real and not digitized. Which really helps the story.

This is the sort of film you can share with kids and get something from it yourself.

Brilliant, edgy with a family undertone. Watch it.

Here's to a robot's long life!

Blessings, Max Rainet.

A masterfully done tale of underdogs - a boy and his dad and a discarded robot - going against the odds, it really does get you pumped up to that level. I got a bigger kick out of this movie than I have from any other this year. It really is that much fun to watch.
