Sean Ellis\u2018 \u201cThe Cut\u201d finds a way around that problem by focusing on physical and psychological struggles outside the ring, especially the grueling battle to make weight. The film tries several things at once, including a flashback structure than doesn\u2019t fully connect, but its impact ultimately comes down to Orlando Bloom\u2018s visceral, transformative performance as an unnamed Irish brawler.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Bloom\u2019s protagonist \u2014 referred to as \u201cthe Boxer\u201d in press notes, and frustratingly, nothing at all in the movie \u2014 can be seen engaged in a professional boxing bout exactly once in \u201cThe Cut.\u201d During the film\u2019s brief prologue, the accomplished prizefighter seems well on his way to another victory, when something mysterious and unseen distracts him from off-screen \u2014 something in the ether that only he can see \u2014 resulting in his opponent getting the upper hand and opening a deep, career-threatening gash above his eye.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    A decade later, the Boxer diligently runs a dilapidated gym in Ireland with his wife Caitlin (Caitr\u00edona Balfe), and can be seen at one point forcing himself to throw up. His life may have changed, but his past seems to live with him, an idea Bloom embodies completely in every moment, and unveils further when his character has a chance to get back in the ring for one big Vegas prize fight \u2014 on one confounding condition. Since he\u2019d be replacing a previous fighter, who died of dehydration during his training, the Boxer has to lose 30 pounds in a single week (more than most people could hope to in several months) in order to make the weight class.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Cinematic transformations touted as \u201cOscar worthy\u201d can often come down to bodily changes \u2014 there\u2019s plenty of that to be found here, much of it on screen \u2014 or even drastic hair and makeup decisions. Both of these certainly contribute to Bloom\u2019s metamorphosis, as his cauliflower ear and the nicks in his buzz-cut hair and above his eyebrow tell their own story about the punishment he\u2019s taken. However, what separates Bloom\u2019s performance from the pack is the way he carries himself. The Boxer is always rankled and always on guard, with eyes that seem to dart and search for opportunity. He has a suppressed hunger within him, and tight facial muscles that speak to a rough upbringing. When he moves, and even when he talks, he does so as though he\u2019s weighed down, and he has to snarl just to get words out on occasion. It would seem cartoonish, like an impression of Connor McGregor, if Bloom weren\u2019t so thoroughly lifelike in his motions, as though he had not just imagined a different past for himself in order to reach this place, but somehow actually lived it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    At first, when Caitlin takes on the role of lead trainer and the couple chooses their own crew, \u201cThe Cut\u201d takes an almost self-reflexive approach to boxing cinema, literalizing the battle between family and obsession by mixing the two together. In the parlance of the \u201cRocky\u201d films, Adrian and Mickey are one and the same, leading to more of an internal conflict for Caitlin (and a more active one) than a sports-movie wife on the sidelines. However, the complications increase tenfold when, unable to lose the pounds despite pushing his body to the brink, the Boxer decides to bring a new trainer into the fold, Boz (John Turturro), a condescending and practically demonic entity, who gets results because, in his words, he doesn\u2019t love anyone or anything except winning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Through torturous workout scenes, and shots of scant, flavorless scraps (just enough to survive), \u201cThe Cut\u201d all but turns the typical training montage into its own nightmarish film, with a disconcerting helping of a quiet male eating disorder on the side. All the while, Ellis also keeps flashing back to the Boxer\u2019s childhood in Troubles-torn Ireland through black-and-white snippets. These attempt to flesh out the neuroses behind the Boxer\u2019s state of mind, but Bloom already embodies this character so thoroughly (and so freakishly) that these scenes become perfunctory \u2014 a feeling that\u2019s only magnified when they start robbing the training scenes of tension whenever they appear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    The Boxer\u2019s origin story, as it were, has lurid dimensions that make his recurring anxieties click into place, but explaining them takes forever. \u201cThe Cut\u201d would have likely been better off had it remained laser-focused on its hellish physical ordeal. The psychology of tragic dimensions can already be gleaned in poetic ways, rather than needing literal details (which unfortunately go hand in hand with the movie\u2019s thuddingly literal hip-hop soundtrack, with tracks that explain the events on screen). Ellis, who doubles as his own cinematographer, even employs delightfully subjective horror imagery to enhance the Boxer\u2019s story of drive and physical punishment \u2014 \u201cThe Cut\u201d is the rare boxing movie that lacks a single moment of in-ring allure or competitive glory \u2014 which is dour enough, and doesn\u2019t require constantly cutting away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    That the Boxer is closed off from his pain ought to be sufficient explanation for the film\u2019s look at the toxicity of sport, because Bloom\u2019s gut-wrenching performances makes it enough. While there\u2019s a more streamlined and thus more effective version of \u201cThe Cut\u201d in there somewhere, what remains on screen is plenty harrowing as it is, and allows Bloom to finally cement himself as a truly great performer \u2014 not for the lengths he\u2019s willing to go, but for the spellbinding end result.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
