The first must-see film of the year.
... View MoreIt's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
... View MoreVery good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
... View MoreThe storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
... View MoreAs a supplier to the production, the UNIVERSAL GYM weight machine, I saw a behind the scenes Mr. T that was nothing like the character.I agree that movie was very inspirational. My gripe is the way Mr. T treated the kids who were hanging around the Chicago Park District building. All they wanted was some recognition a hi-5, a continuous down the line hand slap, maybe just point to them and say HI. There was nothing from him. When moving from the set to his trailer the hood would come up, his head down and moving quickly telling the kids to get out of his way. It was very sad to see the disappointment on their faces. My own five year old son who was with me on the set couldn't get any recognition. If it wasn't for Mr. Dave Cass, the stunt coordinator, none of the kids, some of whom waited in the drizzling rain for a glimpse of the star from "The A Team' wouldn't have anything. I saw him take some press pictures of Mr. T with the auto-signed autograph and pass them out till they were all gone, he talked to those who had questions and generally made them feel appreciated which is what they wanted from their 'hero'.So the movie rates a 7 for what it is, the star rates a 0 from what I witnessed.Dave Boehl
... View MoreIn most of his films and TV shows Mr T-to his credit-has always been a good role model to youngsters. He has mostly played moralistic characters who try to encourage people to develop qualities such as loyalty, friendship, thoughtfulness and humility. The Toughest Man in the World is one of those films.Throughout the movie Mr T as Bruise Brubaker shows a young kid the error of his ways and how to do the right thing. Of course, there's plenty of action throughout. The young kid strays from the path of good on quite a few occasions but Bruise Brubaker never gives up and is always there to pick up the pieces.It's a shame they don't make movies like this any more. This is a movie that conveys a moralistic message but at the same time provides plenty of action and entertainment.Well done Mr. T.
... View MoreJust see how many cloth caps you can spot in the movie! The music and breakdancing sequence at the beginning really takes you back in time. The nightclub dancer is truly a star - those moves - she should have been in Flash Dance. Weight lifters have serious man boobs. Possibly best of all is Mr. T's hair cut. There's even an Al Pacino lookalike (1 hour into the film)- "little showbiz twist I've got buzzin' around in my head" - Al never quite delivered a line like that in his long career. Billy Green has the funkiest walk I have ever seen! Nice shorts that Mr. T wears on the 10 km run, my only worry is that they look a little small for his well built physique. I wonder if there were any 'popping out' incidents during filming (mind you, these could be saved for extra material when the film is released on DVD). Has to be seen to be believed.
... View MoreThis is a very cool film starring the Toughest Man in the World, Mr. T. Directed by Dick Lowry (Project ALF, Smokey and The Bandit 3) the film tells the story of Bruise Brubaker, a tough as nails bouncer with a heart of gold. Brubaker, played with gusto by real life tough-guy and former bouncer Mr. T, decides to enter a toughman contest, but it will take every thing he has to prevail. An exciting treat for fans of Mr. T. Hard to find, but if you do, check it out!
