Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Sue Pierman (154) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 05 Oct 2011

A Frankenstein-like compendium of fight movies haphazardly bolted together in the hope that something will spark to life…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Jason Mckiernan (57) for Filmcritic.com (3,164) on 05 Oct 2011

Unsteadily teeters on the brink of unmitigated disaster for over two hours of metal-clanging robo-fighting and teary-eyed human melodrama…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Marjorie Baumgarten (1,950) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 05 Oct 2011

Lost's Evangeline Lilly remains lost, however, in this film role as Charlies's too-good-to-be-true romantic interest…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Geoff Berkshire (602) for Metromix.com (1,085) on 05 Oct 2011

At least the depressingly similar Transformers franchise serves up its soullessness with a side order of crazy. Real Steel just piles on the schmaltz…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Stephanie Zacharek (2,333) for Movieline (883) on 05 Oct 2011

It goes through all the motions, properly and efficiently, and yet it's missing some core warmth…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Rebecca Murray (740) for About.com (1,470) on 05 Oct 2011

[Real Steel] is the undercard you're forced to sit through in order to get to the real main event, which, in this case, just never materializes…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Jimmyo (378) for JoBlo's Movie Emporium (1,959) on 05 Oct 2011

ROCKY with Robots? You betcha, and it works…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Neil Miller (106) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 05 Oct 2011

Kudos 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…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 05 Oct 2011

I suspect a lot of what I found synthetic and sort of galling in Real Steel will work just fine with the target audience…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Ann Lewinson (45) for Boston Phoenix (1,372) on 05 Oct 2011

Even in its fist-pumping finale Disney's economic parable remains pessimistic: America wins the popularity contest, but the Asians win the purse…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Scott Tobias (1,684) for AV Club (2,778) on 05 Oct 2011

Real Steel falls somewhere near the intersection of elation and shame, essentially reworking the Sylvester Stallone arm-wrestling non-classic…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Soren Anderson (264) for Seattle Times (3,524) on 05 Oct 2011

Imagine what you'd get if you squished Rocky and WALL-E together in a giant industrial press: a gooey, drippy mess, leaking lubricant and metal…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Roger Ebert (5,190) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 05 Oct 2011

Real Steel is a real movie. It has characters, it matters who they are, it makes sense of its action, it has a compelling plot…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Christopher Lloyd (287) for Sarasota Herald-Tribune (239) on 05 Oct 2011

Director Shawn Levy is a certified lightweight who always goes for the easiest emotional payoff…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Matt Pais (1,519) for RedEye (906) on 05 Oct 2011

Real Steel? As opposed to what, imitation metallic substitute? Giant beams made of cheese…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for BrianOrndorf.com (1,055) on 05 Oct 2011

Pure programming from the opening frame, hitting artificial beats throughout, using the shiny robots to distract from painfully leaden filmmaking…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Simon Weaving (195) for Screenwize (216) on 05 Oct 2011

A well made but instantly forgettable robot-boxing movie that dishes out clichés blow-by-blow for its 12-year-old-boy target audience…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Josh Larsen (2,042) for LarsenOnFilm (1,412) on 05 Oct 2011

Every moment is prettified as if this were some sort of prestige project; there isn't an image shot plainly if it couldn't be reflected in a puddle…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Neil Rosen (146) for NY1-TV (146) on 05 Oct 2011

This thing is tons of fun to watch and kids ages 10 to 15 are going to love it…

Review of Real Steel (2011)
