Quick and easy review, the cast were great, exactly like you would expect, I really like the way it looked and the score too, reminded me a bit of films like The Wrestler. The let down for me and the only reason I couldn't score this over a 5 was the story. I mean it isn't bad, we've seen it before done better and we'll see it again done worse. With this one it just feels a little too contrived and easy, add in the money Involved (this is the 2020s not the 1970s!) and it just leaves it feeling like there isn't much at stake. Is it a waste of time? Yes. but if you want to waste some time watching the cast you already know are great then give it a watch

I liked it and i felt it but overall it isn't that good, could have been alot better, the cast was great tho. 6.5/10

Is it worth mentioning that the three lead actors are British? Probably not because most people won't notice, they're pretty good actors. Charlie Hunnam (King Arthur) is older brother Stanley who "looks after" younger brother Jack O'Connell (Unbroken) playing Walter who is a skilled fighter. The phrase "if not for bad luck they'd have no luck at all" applies directly to these guys. Their dire situation expectedly leads to spiraling poorer choices which indebt them to a loan-shark who makes them an offer they can't refuse. Thus begins their road trip to a big fight with a big payday... The catch? They have to take Sky (Jessica Barden of Hanna) along with them. Viewers expecting another Warrior or The fighter will be disappointed... This is more a drama. There is a bit of action thrown in to keep fight fans happy, but the film is about the complexities of family relationships, the struggle to realize one's dreams, the hopelessness of failure and redemption of the spirit. The actors suck you into their world and drag you along the seedy and grimy sidewalks of their life. The camera work is very clean, the scenery spans from gritty to beautiful, and the score is always appropriate, but this is a character driven film, and done well.
