Trivia
Each of the robots were built both in real life and CGI. For certain shots with animatronics, they were controlled by more than twenty puppeteers.

Goofs
Given that Hugh Jackman is left-handed, Atom is seen at times mirroring Charlie rather than mimicking him. In many scenes, especially in the fight between Atom and Zeus, Atom is clearly fighting right-handed while Charlie is shadow boxing left-handed. This is perhaps the reason why Atom is seen to be alternating between mimicking and mirroring even though according to how shadow boxing is explained in the film he should be only mimicking. This is also easily seen, though, when you notice the person running the shadow function either facing Atom or not. The shadow apparently mirrors when the operator is facing him and in mimic when not.

Quotes
Max Kenton: The People's Champion? Sounds pretty good to me.

Great fun for me and my son

My son can't get enough of Real Steel, and I found it very entertaining throughout the whole movie. Its not the worlds best movie at anything, but I feel is a good solid effort that really has given me and my son plenty to talk about and have fun with. It reveals whats right and wrong with humans, plus gives give us great realistic action along the way.

The characters give us a great mix to love and hate and are played really well, along with some very cool robots that seem to come alive in their fights whilst you don't notice the cgi work.

Because my son loves it, I get plenty of satisfaction from this. It certainly sits a top of our DVD pile for replaying often.
