The Fighter

Dir. David O. Russell · United States of America · English

Every dream deserves a fighting chance.

What happens

Boxer "Irish" Micky Ward's unlikely road to the world light welterweight title. His Rocky-like rise was shepherded by half-brother Dicky, a boxer-turned-trainer who rebounded in life after nearly being KO'd by drugs and crime.

What the critics said

— David Edelstein
