Watch Reversal For Free

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Yes, the wrestling is well-done and authentic looking. But for a wrestling movie, there is not much wrestling.Apart from that....it was pretty much a downer and showed everything negative about a otherwise great sport.Dangerous weight-cutting, screwed up parents and venomous rivalries! Gee! What a great "Family Movie"! Lots of characters but not a lot of depth. And the only real interesting character turns out to be a pathological liar! Sorry, but in the end, this wrestling movie is more about bulimia and quitting than anything remotely positive.

Although, yes, some of the choices in this movie were difficult to understand for most people, it is because they have never been through what Leo went through. As a fellow wrestler this movie appealed immensely to me because i could identify with everything the main character was going through. The dropping weight, the dehydration, and the competition on the mat was depicted flawlessly in this movie because it was made by someone who understands what wrestlers go through. This is not an attack on you personally tommyboy16, but unless you are to go through stuff like dropping weight and starving, and training like that which was depicted in the movie, it will be difficult to understand, but that is not a reflection of the quality of the movie. The overall message appeals to everybody, but the little details of the experiences of the main character will most likely appeal to athletes more. That's all, enough said.

A decent movie that makes you think about athletics in general from a parent's perspective. This could be about parents wanting anything that they value for their child.I felt the Dad was a good dad that was making the best with the hand delt him. He did not push his son without caring for him or without some reason. Some make the Dad look awful and that is not the truth. None of them had a great home life. He was not even the stereotypical father that was living through his son's victories becasue he was state champ himself. He just wanted his son to have a college education, that he did not have. He wanted more for his son than a mining job like him.The wrestling was very good but you don't see that much sports action. I gave this movie a 7. I only gave it a seven for the fact that some of the choices were not how I think a human in that situation would choose. I also feel there were some situations in the movie not explained or were not real. The wrestling was real but some of the situations did not come off to me as real. The movie seemed to have an identiy crisis, it did not know what it wanted to be.

Loved the movie, Thanks for bringing back so many memories, and keeping wrestling the best sport in the world. Finally a wrestling movie from someone that actually knows the sport. This is a must see wrestling movie. All wrestlers can relate to the hard work, dedication, and sacrifices shown in the movie.
