Real Steel is neither

[botias]

I'm sorry to report that RS will probably not please anyone over the age of twelve, which makes it odd that it's rated PG-13. But the boys came home and immediately began to construct their own robot gladiators out of LEGO. They were completed by bed time and battled it out [silently] while I read the bedtime story. The boys prefer to have some activity while they are being read to; usually they draw using clipboards. I don't know if it's a modern multi-tasking thing... no, I liked to draw during classes all through school. They seem like they couldn't possibly be paying attention, but they periodically break out of their activity to exclaim at the actions of the characters, correct me or ask what a word means.
