Orlando Bloom gets ripped and bloody for this boxing drama-cum-psychological thriller. The Lord of the Rings star is The Boxer, a veteran of the sport who returns to the ring for one last shot. But rather than any Rocky training montages or brutal one-on-one brawls, our protagonist’s biggest challenge is making the required weight. With John Turturro as a ruthless trainer, Bloom’s boxer undergoes mental gymnastics and illegal weight-cutting tricks. This one could go the distance.
