I thought it was among the best movies of last year. It has compelling characters, every performance is spot-on, the physical performances are convincing--you'll believe that Swank is a top-notch boxer--and there is real chemistry between Swank and Eastwood. There's even a nice subplot that enhances the main plot thematically.
It's a character-driven movie, a lot like Sideways and Lost in Translation in that it's not about the plot, it's about how the characters interact with each other.
