The setup: Two pissed mixed-martial artist Irish brothers rivals in their working-class family.


Gavin O'Connor directs this gripping action/drama; while he skillfully presents sequences that reflect sibling rivalry, he also manages to artistically serve us a gritty and powerful imagery through this film's raw cinematography. Joel Edgerton and Tom Hardy plays the two brothers; while Hardy plays his role convincingly raw, Edgerton plays almost the same. Though it may count some cliched sequences, the film, eases to persuade us to grip on to our seats because of heart pounding action. While it does that, with the cast and staff combined, "Warrior" also delivers a tastefully realistic acting that convincingly moves us; and one other thing it succeeds to give us: heart.

A compelling and gripping story at the same time--though resemblances from the recent The Fighter is inevitably noticable, Warrior brings us to the edge of our heartstrings where drive and emotion collides. 4 stars!
