It doesn’t have a ton of wrestling, but enough scenes to appeal to wrestling fans. And it has lots of locker room scenes. But at the end of the day, it’s about guy and his brothers. It is a heavy movie and it moves fast, so it’s affecting.

I agree. I do wish it has some lighter, triumphal moments sprinkled into the back half. It's like there was a tragedy switch that got flipped and after that it's just all depressing, all the time.
