First of all, I have nothing to do with wrestling and don't find it particularly interesting. Nevertheless, the movie convinced me because it's told more as a family drama with wrestling as the backdrop. At times it seems almost implausible that this movie is based on a true story, more on that in the spoiler. Among the cast, Zack Efron shines in my opinion and Jeremy Allen overperforms in some parts, which I found inappropriate. Bottom line, if you know the story and love wrestling, you should watch it for that reason. If you don't like wrestling, you should watch it for the family drama. If you don't like these stories either, you shouldn't watch Iron Claw.
SPOILER:
THERE WAS ANOTHER BROTHER THEY LEFT OUT WHO ALSO DIED ... The father really was the bane of this family, if the movie is to be believed.
