Not to start an argument, but merely to satisfy my curiosity, who would be your choice for Best Supporting Actor?Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-87080419340080280342012-02-20T12:55:13.224-05:002012-02-20T12:55:13.224-05:00I liked the movie a lot, especially the second par...I liked the movie a lot, especially the second part - the figth scenes were incredible. Although I do not think that Nolte deserves his Oscar nod, his performance was definetly a highlight.

I'm impressed. You've probably noticed my reviews sometimes run to the lengthy side.<br /><br />@Aziza - I agree on Hardy, but I believe his character was intentionally made to be less sympathetic that Edgerton's. The filmmakers still had to have a "bad guy" to oppose the "good guy", even if they were brothers who were both damaged by their father's actions.<br /><br />@Andrew: Encore Entertainment - I confess I didn't remember seeing Edgerton in anything before this. When I went back through his roles while researching for this review it was only then that I was reminded he was in Star Wars Episode III.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-87166856488320335442012-02-18T17:18:19.033-05:002012-02-18T17:18:19.033-05:00The movie tends to be a bit specious on occasion, ...The movie tends to be a bit specious on occasion, but the actors commit although, for me, it's Edgerton who is the complete standout (and kudos to Morrison for trying with a role the film is completely disinterested in).Andrew K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01104647944747041277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-18574267082319789252012-02-18T16:16:13.635-05:002012-02-18T16:16:13.635-05:00Another great review Chip!

Warrior was one of my favorites of 2011 and I was very impressed by both Nick Nolte and Joel Edgerton; Tom Hardy left me cold, I didn't really connect with him!Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18333927581755884053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-10014518825811903262012-02-18T09:09:33.585-05:002012-02-18T09:09:33.585-05:00Great review Chip.

It’s a well-made and emotionally gripping story that brings out some real gut-wrenching moments as well as the great knock-outs.Dan O.http://www.dtmmr.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
