The Fighter is a biographical dram film staring Christian Bale and Mark Wahlberg as Dicky and Micky respectively. This film also stars Amy Adams as Charlene Flaming and Melissa Leo who portrayed Alice Ward, the mother of Dicky and Micky, she manages to leave a chill by her performance and shows how far an actor or actress can take a role.
This film is based of a true story, and upon meeting with the real life version of who the actors and actresses were going portray they were all motivated and give the performance they did. Although this movie was nominated for several awards I feel it was a little over hyped, but still deserving of the awards won. I would recommend watching this film just to watch Melissa Leo's stunning performance the story is also a very inspiring and unfortunately these kinds of films are few and far between.
Rating 7.5/10
