Enter the not-so-distant future where boxing has gone high-tech and 2,000-pound, eight-foot-tall steel robots have taken over the ring. In Real Steel, washed-up boxer Charlie Kenton (Jackman) scrapes by as a small-time robot-fight promoter as he tries to make a comeback. He teams up with his son Max (Goyo) to build and train a championship contender. Against all odds he eventually succeeds—at least in the eyes of his son. Based on the short story Steel by Richard Matheson. (Gary Reber)
