Alexis Bledel taking what looks to be a pretty dark role,

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Art Crawl!!!
Is it a HUGE twist?
I don't know.
But really -- it's a boxing movie full of Oscar-winning actors. What sort of ending do you think it's going to have?

They're dead boxers?
They're actually from the Boxer Rebellion?
They're all really Boxers-- the dogs?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Calling it a "twist" is misleading, IMO. I do think it's probably better to see the film unspoiled, but I wouldn't say there's a plot twist.

So, basically, it's a twist in the sense that all movies should have some sort of twist, or unexpected event? Or, you know, a plot point.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

See, they start off by comparing it to The Sixth Sense and Crying Game.
