Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Bleed for This earns its spot. Bleed for This trusts its audience to sit with discomfort instead of resolving it too quickly. The inspirational story of World Champion Boxer Vinny Pazienza, who after a near fatal car crash, which left him not knowing if he'd ever walk again, made one of sports most incredible comebacks. Miles Teller and Aaron Eckhart lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2016. What elevates Bleed for This is a refusal to let any character off the hook too easily. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

For anyone looking for storytelling that takes its characters seriously, Bleed for This delivers. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. Miles Teller's work here is the kind that gets referenced in career retrospectives. It makes everything else feel thin by comparison.
