Russell walks a narrow line between laughing with the family and laughing at them, but the film never crosses over into parody.

The Fighter is so muscularly and tenderly good because it trains its eye on the matches that take place between kin.

Acting for the silver screen doesn't get more raw, moving or accomplished than what you see in "The Fighter," that rare film in which every performer in it leaves the viewer in awe.

A great boxing movie, a great film about family. Gritty, thrilling, inspirational. Deserves multiple Oscar nominations.

It's audacious, it's fun, it's rowdy, and it's just twisted enough to always be interesting. Beyond that, it's one of the year's best acting showcases and likely to grab multiple Oscar nominations.

Superb performances and a well told story make The Fighter one of the year's best films.

Makes too many concessions to the Hollywood judges, pulls too many punches.

Only Amy Adams, playing Micky's tough-tender girlfriend Charlene, manages to be convincingly working-class without seeming either dopey or rabid or strung-out.
