Movie: Warrior

[nev]

What a brilliant movie, excellent performance by the lead actors, and an unforgettable one by Nick Nolte in a supporting role. I wouldn't be surprised if Nolte gets an Oscar this year.

I've never heard of Tom Hardy before this movie, but now I'm a big fan. The plot is interesting, but a little slow in the beginning. About 1/3 into the movie things really started heating up. The fight scenes were brutal, well-choreographed, especially the final fight. Reminds me if Fight Club, or Spartacus minus the decapitation and disembowelment. I do love a good fight scene

Four out of five stars.

Edit to add: OMG I just read this about Hardy: "He will play the chemically enhanced villain Bane in The Dark Knight Rises which is the final film in the Christopher Nolan saga and is set for release in 2012."

If you like Tom Hardy, watch Bronson. He is amazing - ridiculously talented.
