WARRIOR.
Contains almost every cliche' you could imagine. Blue collar mill town...check. Alcohol and drug issues....check.... underdogs triumphing over adversity...check. The film is great however as the director seems to have the smarts to realise how unorigional the film is and simply play up to it creating a very entertaining melodrama. Still not as good as Rocky though!
Kudos to nick nolte for a supurb performance!
