Jon Favreau wrote, directed, and starred in this very funny, very clever, well made film.
I absolutely love this movie, and am sad that it never got the attention it truly deserves. It's an above average film that didn't get much exposure.
All of the acting was great, and I enjoyed all of the different characters, but Favreau and Vince Vaughn were incredible. The scenes they were in together were hilarious and unforgettable. Neither of them disappointed me. A lot of people criticized Vince Vaughn because they thought his character was annoying. And he was! That was the point, he was extremely annoying, and extremely funny. He absolutely stole the show.
The overall tone of this movie was gritty and real, which fit with a movie about criminals in New York City. There was never a dull moment, and it never got me bored.
The only complaint I have about this film is the cussing. I'm not one to quiver after hearing an F bomb, but there are points in the movie, where it's used a couple times in a sentence repeatedly. It's not really that big a deal, but all I could think of. But if you don't enjoy cussing, that attribute of the film could turn you off.
This movie is amazing, and I urge everyone to see it.

I recently picked up the VHS of this movie yesterday for three bucks at a thrift store. I'm sad to say that I was ripped off.
There really is nothing good that came from the this movie. It is just another sad attempt to make more money on another horror franchise. The acting is pretty bad, the dialog was cheesy and terrible, but what I hated most was the music playing throughout the entire film. I don't know why they had this weird piano, and synth music, but it drove the cheese factor of this movie through the roof. It drove me nuts, and made me feel like I was watching an old Goosebumps. Not only that, but I was also bored. Halfway through, I was seriously considering turning it off.
None of the characters in the film were likable at all. I wanted Jason to slaughter all of them so I wouldn't have to sit through anymore bad acting and cheesy dialog.
I won't even bother explaining the plot because it'll get me more upset, but if you're a fan of Jason movies, especially bad cheesy ones with annoying characters, and idiotic music, then give it a shot. Otherwise, stay away from this movie.

The movie Warrior, truly is a great movie. I enjoyed everything about it. It was inspiring, uplifting, real, and just flat out good. Everything a movie should be.
You don't have to be an MMA or fighting fan to enjoy this film. But I'm sure you'll like it by the end. It pulls you in from the start, and you can't help but care about these characters. Played by Nick Nolte, Tom Hardy, and Joel Edgerton.
Nolte is the father of Hardy and Edgerton, and both sons are MMA fighters trying to win a tournament for their own different reasons.
Throughout the movie you're rooting for both these men, and hoping for the best. I have a brother and we saw this movie together. By the end, we didn't know whether to be happy or cry. And that's good.
I was not disappointed with this film in anyway, and by the end of it, it almost brought a tear to my eye. I love this movie, and recommend anyone and everyone to go and see it.
