“Bleed for This” is confidently directed by Ben Younger, stars a cast that
has exponentially transformed themselves to physically resemble their real-life
counterparts, and yet something is missing. A distracting soundtrack and hurried script make “Bleed for This” hemorrhage the sense of a well-rounded
cinematic experience.
The movie tells the true story of Vinny Pazienza
(Miles Teller), a World Champion boxer whose life is upended
when a near-fatal car accident leaves him fighting for his life and the use of
his legs.
