Synopsis:

Grudge Match stars award-winning movie legends Oscar winner Robert De Niro (Raging Bull, Silver Linings Playbook) and Oscar nominee Sylvester Stallone (the Rocky films, The Expendables) as old boxing rivals who come out of retirement for one final match. Peter Segal (Get Smart) directs the comedy. In Grudge Match, De Niro and Stallone play Billy "The Kid"; McDonnen and Henry "Razor"; Sharp, two local Pittsburgh fighters whose fierce rivalry put them in the national spotlight. Each had scored a victory against the other during their heyday, but in 1983, on the eve of their decisive third match, Razor suddenly announced his retirement, refusing to explain why but effectively delivering a knock-out punch to both their careers. Thirty years later, boxing promoter Dante Slate Jr., seeing big dollar signs, makes them an offer they can't refuse: to re-enter the ring and settle the score once and for all.
