I don't know how many times I've watched "Rocky Balboa" and thought to myself, "what this movie needs is more Kevin Hart and Robert De Niro."
Thankfully, Santa will deliver this Christmas when "Grudge Match" hits theatres.
The movie stars none other than Sly Stallone as a -- get this -- aging former boxer long past his prime! The plot sets him up against his former arch rival played by the guy from Raging Bull. They fought twice a couple of decades ago but never set up their big rubber match.

Here's what IMDB says about the whole thing:
A pair of aging boxing rivals are coaxed out of retirement to fight one final bout -- 30 years after their last match.
Sounds familiar. But will Robert De Niro be able to pull of the kind of performance he impressed with in Silver Linings Playbook?
Finally, what kind of numbskull would go see this movie? Okay fine, I totally would.
