True life, very sad
Older fans of the sport will remember this family.I think it’s pretty sad their father was so cruel. One thing, what we consider child abuse now? It wasn’t like that back then.This heartbreaking story will get in your head and touch your heart.There’s one brother left, and he looks nothing like the strapping handsome guy he once was.If you watch this movie not knowing about the story, you’ll leave feeling very empty. Not because it’s not a good movie, it is.I knew the story and I wanted to cry.I would like to see a movie about a certin well known family from Canada.As for streaming quality is was just fine. No issues at all.

Amazing story
I am a 90s child raised watching the Monday night wars. This movie is a place well before that time but it is everything that a wrestling fan could want in a movie. Being based on a famous wrestling family made the emotions hit even harder. My word can’t do the movie justice and everyone wrestle fan or not should watch this movie.

A must have for any Von Erich fan!
It is unfortunate that this movie did not win any awards, as this truly was an amazing movie. The tragic tale of the Von Erich family needed to be told, and it couldn't have been done better !

Enjoyed
I expected an in-your-face WWF exaggerated experience but was instead treated to feature defining values, respect, and family bonds. I would never have imagined the real life of a professional wrestler would be anything other than prideful masquerading but the Von Erichs showed a very real side of Kevin Von Erich's life. Yes, you can watch it with your kids and find value that they saw it.

A great portrayal of the Von Eric's
Awesome film. Gives a superb look into wrestling and one of the greatest wrestling names ever in the industry. Loved it second by second. You should definitely check this out if you're an old school wrestling fan!

Entertaining but Needed More
With so many bad cookie cutter movies being released I read the reviews about this movie and everybody said how great it was so I bought it as I was bored for good entertainment. It's not great. It's ok to maybe good. Seems it needed more exposition. Could have e been a longer movie going deeper into the wrestling aspect.The fact that one guy had his foot amputated due to a motorcycle accident and still wrestled could have used more scenes. I never knew. I remember these guys as a kid following wrestling. Wow. The movie was entertaining and it's worth a watch but it's not great like every conservative reviewer says it is. You can tell the reviewers that lean right and the ones that lean left. Everything is so politicized. 🙄Zack Efron continues to impress. The acting was good the writing etc it just needed more wrestling stuff more into the struggles of wrestling. We all know it's scripted not fake but how do they determine the win? At what point do they swing? Do they follow crowd reactions? Why do these wrestlers seem to think it's 100% real when they talk about what they're going to do. ...It's not a buy it it's a rent it if you're bored or just wait till it streams. I watched it twice and don't care to see it again. It's not bad though.

10/10
Amazing movie!!! Pretty spot on with real life, missing just a few things. But they did very well at bringing the personalities of the brothers out. Even if you don’t watch wrestling, it’s an incredible movie.

If you were a fan of the Von Erichs back in the 80s you'll love this.
Great movie. I knew Kerry and I'm kind of disappointed in the casting for him. Kerry was a big dude with a heart of gold. JAW did a good job, but looked nothing like Kerry.
