This was a really solid, well paced movie but it is lacking in the character development department heavy to the point that all of the tragic moments in the movie feel like they were glossed over. The acting was great in this and I especially think the actors who played the parents were great in this.

The more I think about it they should have increased the run time and added the fifth brother. It's obvious the actors worked really hard on this, might as well go all the way, if the movie was 2 hours 45 minutes ppl would be OK with it.

This was a fantastic extremely well done movie. There were so many layers to the Von Erichs that it could have easily been a 6 part miniseries. They had to move over a lot of events and take out an entire brother to fit it the time then again this could have been 3 hours and I don't think anyone would have protested.

Movie was really good but they missed something because although the tragedies in the movie are sad, it didn't even get me close to choked up pause.

Also they acting like the matches outcomes weren't pre determined :dahell:

A24 does it again.

This movie was WAAAY better than I thought it would be.

he casting; minus ric flair was incredible.

I loved the movie but damn was that some of the most depressing shyt I've ever seen.

9/10 from me; the ric flair mis cast held it back.
