You wrestling stans still crying over a 1 min cameo?
DAMN RICK FLAIR WAS TERRIBLE.
YOU WOULD THINK
A PROFESSIONAL ACTOR COULD
GET HIM DOWN TO THE TEE.
ME AND MOST WRESTLING FANS
COULD DO BETTER THAN THAT.

Mister Terrific
It’s in the name
Yeah that’s probably the only bad thing about the movie. Horrible Rick Flair.

STANS?I WATCH WRESTLING ONCE
EVERY 4-5 YEARS WHEN SOMETHING BIG HAPPENS.
RICK FLAIR IS SUCH AN EASY IMPERSONATION
ITS SHOCKING HOW BAD DUDE WAS.
Saw this last night.
This good and it's wild how much was left out that would make it way more darker and depressing. It makes zero sense not to have ALL the brothers in the movie. Chris's story would have been the most depressing and hit even harder: (Born way smaller then the rest of the brothers, he was born with brittle bones and having multiple injuries but loved wrestling and wanted to be in it. Developing a drug problem. Depressed that he couldn't be like brothers and depressed over his brothers' suicide and other brother's death. Then he kills himself too.
They didn't give the full details about Mike that was even more depressing: failed marriage that didn't even last a year.
*Why was Kevin's 2 kids boys in the movie when they were girls in real life and then he later had 2 boys?
--------------------------
Even knowing the full history already the movie hit me.
2 brothers kill themselves.
1 brother dies in hotel room for intestinal issues.
1 brother dies as a lil kid by drowning after getting electrocuted.

Finally saw this. I get why it got no award love. Its really just a decent movie. Nothing special about it.
Like Kerry killed himself. What lead to him doing that? There as no development there. He loses his foot. Looks forlorn, and then comes back a few years later as intercontinental champion and then offs himself. Same with Mike. I am not saying go into deep detail as to what caused their demise, but it went from 0 to 100 without showing us how we got that fast.
Their mom was barely used in this movie
Efron was good tho, but I feel everyone else was wasted.
The Flair actor was goofy, but that's not why I watched the movie so it didn't matter to me.

Behind b*stards series on Vince McMahon, started with talking about Fritz. The movie didn't cover that he made Kerry wrestle after the accident which probably led to him losing his foot.
edit: the brothers all meeting in heaven was beautifully done.

That's why I thought this would work better as a multi part movie or a series. It would've given more time to let the emotional moments breathe, let them get more in-depth on just how sick Fitz was, gave more time to show the bond the brothers had as well as covering their rise to stardom.

we only saw the mom showing pain when Mike died and she didn't want to wear the dress. It was so wasted.
