The Iron Claw - Reviews

...the sickest part of the film is that the manicured, but still tragic, tale made me want to watch more wrestling.

From tribulations and triumphs to tragedies, Durkin wields this true-life saga with the precision of a scalpel to expose the underlying agonies of American fathers, sons, and brothers.

It’s the biopic for wrestling fans who don’t like biopics, and the wrestling movie for biopic fans who don’t like wrestling.

...a heartbreaking dissection of fraternal tragedy.

...crowd-pleasing wrestling saga grapples with toxic masculinity.

DoP Mátyás Erdély brings his camera in tight during the body-slamming action, so much so that you can almost smell the baby oil.

...en dybt gribende fortælling om familie og maskuline idealer.

...en absolut behændig legemliggørelse af Von Erich-familiens tragiske historie.

...bjuder på fin underhållning, ett stycke spännande historia, bra skådisinsatser, en skön visuell värld, samt en och annan lärdom om toxisk maskulinitet.
