Hugh Jackman in fine form. Need I say more??
Plot: Set in the near future, where robot boxing is a top sport, a struggling
promoter feels he's found a champion in a discarded robot. During his
hopeful rise to the top, he discovers he has an 11-year-old son who
wants to know his father.
I was a bit young the first time this came out and even though I am an 80's child, I haven't watched the film until recently.
Thankfully it sticks closer to the original than a lot of remakes that they are doing at the moment. We get a bit more background on why 'Ren' comes to be living with his relatives, it's not so clear in the original movie.
Plot: City kid Ren MacCormack moves to a small town where rock 'n' roll and
dancing have been banned, and his rebellious spirit shakes up the
populace.
