In the near future when people become uninterested in boxing and similar sports, a new sport is created - Robot boxing wherein robots battle each other while being controlled by someone. Charlie Kenton, a former boxer who's trying to make it in the new sport, not only doesn't do well, he is very deeply in the red. When he learns that his ex, mother of his son Max, dies, he goes to figure out what to do with him. His ex's sister wants to take him in but Charlie has first say in the matter. Charlie asks her husband for money so he can buy a new Robot in exchange for turning Max over to them. He takes Max for the summer. And Max improves his control of his robot. But when the robot is destroyed, they go to a scrap yard to get parts. Max finds an old generation robot named Atom and restores him. Max wants Atom to fight but Charlie tells him he won't last a round. However, Atom wins. And it isn't long before Atom is getting major bouts. Max gets Charlie to teach Atom how to fight, and the father and son bond strenghtens.
Leave your thoughts about Real Steel.
| ComingSoon.netEdward DouglasDelivers a powerful dramatic punch without ever feeling like it needs to dumb itself down to win over its audience. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzCliched underdog sports movie, that's predictable, contrived and its familiar derivative plot line is put to poor use. |
| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenWhile most of the characters are not very appealing, young Dakota Goyo really carries the day. He keeps this film afloat when none of the other characters seem to be worth watching. |
| Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerThey should call this overloud, underwhelming movie "Real Steal." |
| IGN MoviesJim VejvodaThis is the 'boy and his robot' movie that Transformers always should have been. |
| Village VoiceNick PinkertonBased very loosely on a short story by "I Am Legend" author Richard Matheson, Real Steel in fact comes closer to road-bonding movies featuring children and hesitant papas: "Paper Moon" or "Over the Top," say. |
| Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallReal Steel is sci-fi without the science, and the fiction is strictly 20th century, straight out of Rocky knockoffs. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongReal Steel is a blast, an unabashed crowd-pleaser that mixes Rocky, Transformers, video games and father-son bonding to great, if corny, effect. |
| Film School RejectsNeil MillerKudos to Shawn Levy, he's made a movie many of us didn't expect - the personification of what a Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots movie should be. |
| Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)Brian GibsonCharacters' smug, this-is-so-cool!ness and jingoistic, heartland subtext tries to knock us into submission. The hero's one of those animatronic adults in kid's clothing. |
