A little slow at times, but worth watching. Learned much about this man, the situation and the world of wrestling. Be patient as you watch, as it took us a good 90 minutes (out of the 120 minutes of the film) to finally "get into it". If you last that long, everything will make sense, it is be a decent watch. Decent acting performances by Carell, Ruffalo and Tatum.

"Based on a true story, this is about 2 Olympic gold winning wrestling brothers - David the eldest and Mark. Mark is struggling to make ends meet. He is flown to the estate of millionaire eccentric John Du Pont who offers to train him with all expenses paid. John Du Pont is driven by the need to impress his disapproving mother Jean who views wrestling as a low sport. Things begin to sour between Mark and John which ultimately leads to a shocking conclusion. This is Channing Tatum and Steve Carel"
