    Bleed for This doesn’t just hit hard—it lands. This film tells the wild, almost-unbelievable true story of Vinny Pazienza, a certified boxing legend who redefined what it means to be unbreakable. The movie chronicles how Vinny Paz wasn’t just fighting opponents in the ring—he was fighting doctors, doubt, and a severely broken neck. With a halo screwed into his skull, he managed to step back into the ring. That’s not just resilience—that’s the greatest comeback in boxing history. Miles Teller taps all the way in with his performance, bringing Paz’s voice, swagger, toughness, and vulnerability to the screen. Aaron Eckhart is unrecognizable—in the best way—as trainer Kevin Rooney, and the chemistry between them is electric. Director Ben Younger keeps the energy tight, gritty, and real. Director Ben Younger does a brilliant job bringing Paz’s world to life, with intense fight scenes, strong character work, and a story that pulls you in from start to finish. Vinny Pazienza’s story is compelling beyond words—a testament to the power of will and the refusal to give up. Bleed for This is a must-watch for boxing fans and anyone who loves a true underdog story that hits hard and stays with you.

    It was a great movie about a guy that was told he would never fight again and defied the odds to finish his career the way he wanted to. Paz will be inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in June 2025 and this movie captures his wild life in a perfect way.

    This was such a compelling movie with good acting. Miles Teller was excellent in the leading role. The ending had reflections of Rocky only this was based on a true story. It's definitely worth the watch.

    This sports drama true story is really good, the '80s gives you the feel and the video footage in certain scenes it has that like you were in the early days of boxing and TV. Acting is amazing, the way tell the story with this you for the him and what he goes through and they way mixed with family and friends you can tell that he has the strength to move on. Even though some nudity, cussing it and inappropriate moments and even with boxing scenes it does takeway or add Nothing but just gives life a boxer and relationship with his girlfriend and family especially his POPs. The best part of whole movie is that not only he believes himself, is that coach begin biggest supporter more his Dad, which like. All in all worth your time and streaming on MAX and give a A+👍👍👍👍

    Miles Teller is great actor but in this movie failed to convince me that he has the charisma and ability of a lead acting role, nevertheless the storytelling of the true events was great.

    Generally, it was a very generic experience for me, sprinkled with some emotionally captivating lines from the main character that were very motivational to hear. Not the best athlete biopic, nor the worst; it's right in between from what I've watched. Basically, you can watch it and literally passes the time.
