The Fighter



What I liked: The cast was excellent. I read somewhere that Mark Wahlberg trained for years before filming and it shows. He looked like a boxer instead of an ex-underwear model. Christian Bale may have done his best work ever (although he was pretty good in Newsies). The supporting actor award should be his. Melissa Leo and Amy Adams were also great and could compete with each other in the supporting actress race. I also enjoyed the subplots. It's just not about Wahlberg's character...Bale, Leo, and Adams all had interesting story lines and strong character development.

Bonus: Conan O'Brien's sister!

What I didn't like: ...

Grade: A
