These kinds of movies have been done to death

[SpareMeTheCrapMovies · 5/10 · 18 June 2021]

The movie wasn't bad, but neither was it good. Just mediocre. There was nothing in it that had you gripping to watch more and if you stopped watching it after half an hour, you really wouldn't have missed anything.

There are simply way too many of these kinds of movies where some person is considered an underdog due to circumstances and tries to rise above the situation to achieve something nobel. But in this film, the.protaganist's goal is to win at wrestling in spite of his disability. If this had been a story of someone succeeding in the Olympics, this might be interesting. But by the end of film, he doesn't really achieve his goal. And that girl that seems to be "into him" has no real interest beyond casual friendship.

This is not one of those films where you come away from it feelingn inspired because even though the protaganist has cerebral palsy working against him, we all have something in life working against us. It isn't just sheer will power that helps us overcome. Luck plays a certain role in success for all of us. There was nothing in the film that even remotely addressed the "luck" part of his journey.

Personally, I think producers would be better off searching for more inspirational scripts than wasting their money on a mediocre one.

the act wasn't good

No one in the show had a perfect performance, and I don't understand why Terrance Howard is feeling emotional when he was talking to mike's father and cried. The father who is supposed to get emotional not the coach that was funny actually. I only liked the movie because it was inspired by a real story, everything else is terrible.

Atypical

Terrance Howard again a stand up / handsome / Inspiring figure. RJ again same person in breaking bad. Story again an incomplete life become completed after different encounters. Everything did right for their part but just soooo typical and same as before..... I love Terrance so rate a bit higher.

Terrance Howard gave phenomenal performance when it came to assisting this gentleman as his coach, I tip my hat off to the young warrior who persevered despite his troubles deserves a real decent score.

Painfully Cringy

[MichaelJamesArlow · 5 September 2021]

This is a painful attempt at a feel good movie, with corny lines, ridiculous scenes and pathetic script writing. I cannot even begin to explain how I wish I could have my time back. Not to mention how the slow motion end scenes that are stretched out with one liners in between make you want to gouge your eyes out and drag them through boiling nails in hope of relief! Oh my granny! Is there not an option to give it less that one! I'd rather go blind than watch that again.

Great Family Movie

[clevepilakowski · 10/10 · 1 April 2024]

Enjoyed watching this movie together with family on Easter - always good to learn about other journeys in left. I think the title was perfect, it was easy to root for Mike. His character was smart, funny, and tough.

I think the actor who played Michael seemed to represent a person with cerebral palsy very true to life.

I liked that it was set in the 80's - the music in the movie was fun. Of course, I certainly hope that the outright bullying that was shown in the movie wouldn't find a place in schools or on teams today.

Stay tuned for the photos at the end, they were a nice touch (Rock Chalk!).

Bravo!
