Fighter

First off, Bale's performance is phenomenal.

It makes this movie rewatchable, but not in the regular rotation - because it's basically a movie about a bunch of white trash; and how interesting can that really be? Lol It's one I'll definitely watch every few years, because it's good - but not something I'd watch once a year, or throw on for background noise, while doing something else.

It's maybe the firmest 7 I've ever given.

Wahlberg is always just Wahlberg, you either like him or you don't.

I like him, so I don't mind it when they cast him.

But know what you're getting into.

You're just watching it for Bale's performance.

The people they play are all entirely unlikable, outside of Wahlberg and his girlfriend.
