Spoiler-free thoughts
7 January 2024
Although I followed wrestling for over 40 years, I didn't know much about the Von Erich family. This movie told their story in an incredibly captivating way. It is exteremly well-written and well-filmed, but the performances are what really stand out. Every character gives you a reason to want to keep watching them; you won't necessarily like some of them, but they hold your attention. Zac Efron brings unbelievable gravity to his portrayal of Kevin Von Erich. In just a few short moments, he had me admiring this person completely. It's a very emotional story with a lot of difficult moments, but it didn't leave me depressed. In fact, I thought this movie had the most perfect, emotionally affecting ending since Toy Story 3. I would recommend this movie to anyone.
