Ex-boxer Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) finds a new lease of life when he teams up with his estranged son Max (Dakota Goyo) to train 2,000 pound robot fighting machines in Real Steel.
Also jumping into the ring are Lost's Evangeline Lilly, Kevin Durand and Anthony Mackie, while the behind-the-camera talent includes Shawn Levy, Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg. There's also reportedly a minimal amount of CGI, with fighting legend Sugar Ray Leonard on-hand to help out with the realistic robot scraps.
