Grudge Match (2013)
6/10
Entertaining but not anything special
12 January 2014
To me, 6/10 = pretty good.

I had thought originally that the commercials were duping me into expecting Rocky vs Lamotta but that the actual film would be more unique than that. Alas, it really was essentially Rocky vs Lamotta... well, "Lamotta Light".

Anyway, "Grudge Match" was certainly entertaining, never dull, and it was kind of fun to see these two famous boxing movie characters go head-to-head. Stallone seemed like he was less into it than Diniro, who really amped up his performance for comedic effect; however, I couldn't get past the way it felt like it relied on movie clichés to reel the audience emotions.

Overall, I'd recommend it for light meaningless entertainment.
