Well acted Movie, wasnt sure at the beginning what kind of movie would turn out to be but by the end felt was really well done. Nothing over the top so if Rocky is your style of boxing movie you may not love this. I dont think I have a good enough reason to not go to the gym again after seeing this lol

I rated this movie as a 7, but I give it 8 for the first hour and 6 for the rest of the movie. The last hour could have had a better plot and focus more on the struggles of Pazienza. It is a good story of superation, mixed with some comedy and great performances by Miles Teller and Aaron Eckhart. For me the best part of the movie is the message that it is possible to overcome great challenges and get back to the top.

There is nothing very groundbreaking about the style or narrative arc of this wee gem; there have been more realistic and more intense boxing scenes over the years, more emotional ones too, but where Bleed For This wins is in the casting and the superb performances from Miles Teller, Aaron Eckhart and Ciaran Hinds, all doing incredible character work, with hair second only to anything in American Hustle. Directed with a fondness for the late 80s and a good eye for detail, we come to care about this story purely because Miles Teller makes us care - real, energetic and unsentimental, he takes us on the journey with him every step and every punch. That it is all very predictable and mostly lacking in tension in the ring doesn't stop it being a powerful film, just because the relationships are so well drawn. No Warrior. No Rocky, even. But a decent small story remarkable in its truth.

Miles Teller is one of the best actors of this time and he delivers in Bleed for This. Aaron Eckhart along with Teller truly carry this film. The supporting cast does a strong job of conveying what a family would feel through all of this. Every boxing movie deals with adversity most sports movies need some form of adversity to make you care. I am happy this film did not fall in line with what is expected from a boxing movie and I was uncomfortable through over half the movie. Check it out.

Miles Teller has become one of, if not the best actor of his generation. He's become equally at home in action, comedy or dramatic roles. He thoroughly surprised me as the Pazmanian Devil, Vinny Pazienza.

Drawn out and predictable even if you didn't know the original story. I had no empathy for any of the cast especially the lead played by Miles Teller who did his best with a poor script. Just another brooding piece of film making without any redeeming values.

Maybe it's the truly amazing turn of events that Vinny went through that makes me give this a high score, but I also love an American sports film. This made 'Bleed For This' right up my street. It's not up in the heady heights of Rocky. But it's easily as good a film as Creed for me. Miles Teller is wonderful, and I really did root for him in this. I was completely unaware of Vinny Pazienza, and I'm more than happy with this film telling me his story. A solid 8 out of 10, and well worth a watch if you like a good underdog film.

I might thank this movie next week for getting my sorry, lazy a** from out of the cinema seat it has been hitherto wedged into most evenings and back into the gym, to give my (slightly) flabby form a good working out. For even a wimpy, non-sporty man such as I has had his head turned by boxing in this solid and strong pugilism picture. All movies have a tendency to cliché and perhaps they feel more obvious in sport film because I don't like sports, so I don't like sports film. Bleed For This appealed to me because, not only does director Ben Younger give the film an immediacy and alertness, but squares up to those clichés head on. Hew pays them due respect, a little lip-service, and then cracks on with the film at hand. 4/5 stars. 'nuff said.
