This forum is getting too big. I'm sure DM blabbed about this film here, but I can't find it (Ha! Go look. Do my job for me)
It was a giant cliched bag of goodness. The plot was unbelievable. But it didn't seem to matter. Tom Hardy was terrific as the monosyllabic broken war vet fighting for mysterious reasons. Nick Nolte was good as his trainer alcoholic abusive father. Joel Edgerton is fine as the past his prime UFC physics teacher. It has to be good everyone is a hyphenate.
The plethora of fight scenes were dirty and quick, especially if Hardy was involved. He looked swole, probably a precursor to his role as Bane in the upcoming Batman movie.
If you have critiques for this film, I have no defense for them. They are probably correct. But it was enjoyable if supremely unbelievable.
