Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really enjoyed this flim. Great acting! Christian bael is great.

Is a great movie plot and bale is at his best. It's a must see

if you haven't seen it, its worth a watch. Not a must see.

I don't remember the exact story line...but that any movie christian bale is in ...always worth watching. He totally puts himself into the character...saved this movie...the story wasn't that interesting.

The movie dragged on, I kept looking at my watch to see when it would end. The story could have been told in half the time and the story is dull.

The trailer is what lead me to buy this movie. Extremely disappointed with the plot and the lack of action.

Meh can't remember much about this movie. That says it all.

This movie wasnt at least for me that good, but everybody has different taste in movies.

This was a slow, boring movie and not much happened

Very Slow Story Line. Christia Bale Is A Better Actor Than The Story Allowed

There's a certain melancholy to a lot of country music that seemed to make Scott Cooper's Crazy Heart redolent with a kind of ragged sensibility that was perhaps best summed up by the title of its Academy Award winning song, "The Weary Kind". There's a different kind of sadness running rampant in Cooper's latest, the dour but often compelling Out of the Furnace, a film that in lesser hands might have been more of a straight ahead revenge thriller without much to recommend it other than a visceral killing or two. The revenge aspect of Out of the Furnace almost plays out as a tangent here, though, for there's a deeper tack that Cooper ends up exploiting, a penetrating examination of lives with no hope for a better future, but with an innate nobility nonetheless. That nobility is weathered, though, filled with the scuffs and scars of experiences that seem to echo some perverse mantra of "life isn't fair". While the film really concentrates on the travails of hardscrabble steel mill worker Russell Baze (Christian Bale), the film's dark, moody ambience is established from virtually the first moment with a modern day update of the iconic scene with Jimmy Cagney and Mae Clark in The Public Enemy, only in this instance we're dealing with a much more dangerously sociopathic criminal named Harlan (Woody Harrelson) , a character who isn't about to punish his nemeses with something as relatively harmless as a grapefruit. It's a startling opening scene, one which assault the viewer with virtually as much force as Harlan assaults his perceived antagonists in the film, and it quickly creates a stifling mood of terror and impending doom. That mood was palpable enough to actually foster a lawsuit filed by a group of plaintiffs who share a surname with Harlan's character and who claim the film maliciously maligns not just their name but their ethnic heritage (the plaintiffs are part of a recently state recognized Native American tribe which has yet to receive Federal designation).

I had never heard of this movie until I bought it. Picked it up on a whim. I am a fan of of all the big name actors in this flim. Good intense scenes with good acting.

Loved this movie. Both action packed and filled with great characters. Christian Bale at his best. Others should see this one if you have not.

I give this movie a 3 1/2 (3 in here) because well, I bought this movie mainly because of Christian Bale, I love his acting but there was just something about this movie that I kids hated but I ca't really put my finger on it.. Sorry I can't give you a more detailed review on this one.. :/

Russell and Rodney Baze live in a depressed steel mill town near Pittsburgh and care for their ill father. Rodney is lured into one of the Northeast's most ruthless crime rings and mysteriously disappears. When the police fail to solve the case, Russell puts his life at risk in get revenge.

Good cast and plot. Vengeance and justice run hand in hand with this movie.

I will watch anything with Christian Bale. Except for Newsies.

"Out of the Furnace" is buoyed by a cast that's too good for it. It's decent enough, despite being overwhelmingly ugly and depressing.

i loved this movie its was real good good story and acting.

Very predictable. VERY slow developing. Anti-climactic weird ending. Bad acting by Woody. I want those hours of my life back.
