Solid, as iron is
Wrestling and Zac Efron, there's no combo like it, right? Add in Lip from Shameless and you've got a great blend of heart and humor, The Iron Claw is a movie I didn't catch when it came out but had the pleasure of viewing today, and it was very feasible for what it was.
Zac Efron gives a powerful performance, having to balance being a wrestling champion, a father, a son, and a brother all at the same time, the pressure gets to him and he's able to be funny but also emotional, even if it seems like he's just reading lines sometimes.
His other co-stars don't exactly add up, however, many of the performances felt stilted and the story got very stunted at times, but picked up in others, it also started at one point and didn't seem to have too clear of a structure, but all in all, was very decent
B+
