Who the fvck thought this was a good idea for a movie? Watched it this weekend, I was a big Von Erich fan back in the early-mid 80s when I followed wrestling. I knew they had a lot of tragedy in their family, but jesus, this whole movie is just one big ball of depressing. So depressing they decided to completely omit the existence of the youngest brother from the movie. I guess 2 deaths by suicide were deemed more than enough to carry this fun ride at the theater.


Don't get me wrong, it's a solid movie, but there's nothing to feel good about during the entire 2+ hour run.

Just watched it this morning. Oooffff, you guys weren’t kidding about it being a downer. I never knew about these guys or their story. The dad seemed like a world class asshole.
