Wahlberg&Bale fighting

A funny, violent and well played movie by the creator of Three Kings, David O Russel. "The Fighter" will grip you by the neck from the first scence, where Bale puts his money where his mouth is (once again) and brings home the bacon. A bacon with which he later makes a delicious proverbial omelet together with Mark Wahlberg. Wahlberg keeps a steady basal level of acting no more than necessary, and it works perfectly, despite him having the lead role. Not only in the movie, but also in the family.

Based on a true story, on top of it all.
