Bleed for This is an American biographical boxing film directed by Ben Younger.
Starring Miles Teller, Aaron Eckhart, Katey Sagal, Ciarán Hinds & Ted Levine.
The film tells the true story of a boxer Vinny Pazienza. In 1988 he loses a match and his trainer suggests him to retire. Frustrated Vinny finds a new trainer, Kevin Rooney, who suggest him new techniques and as a result Vinny wins a title. It was all going well until he gets into a car accident that fractures his neck.
Teller is one of the versatile actors of his generation and this time he comes up with a boxer character. He did a fine job in portraying the Vinny's character. It's not an outstanding performance from him like 'Whiplash' movie. The ring scenes were nicely shot and it was less intense when compared with other boxing movies. Younger's direction was solid, especially the second half. Overall, it's a nice inspirational movie and please don't expect a Rocky type movie from this small flick.
Verdict: Good
