This is the best movie I've seen in a long time, it touches on so many levels; family, loss, growing pains, addiction, life mistakes...redemption. And even though I didn't want the movie to end, the ending was perfect. 10 stars across the board! Thank you for such a beautiful movie. Happy Holidays!
A movie that values hard work, determination, kindness and GOD in 2020!!! Uh, yes please! I would have given it ten stars but gave it nine for the predictability factor, other than that, I was very happy to find this gem tonight. Loved it!
I'm a big fan of films like The Karate Kid and Rudy. I love a good sports movie and Cole Hauser is becoming one of the greats. This is a deeply felt sports drama without the schmaltz that often accompanies films like this. Every performance was authentic the wrestling action was very realistic and I had an easy time following it though I am not too familiar with the sport.
The people involved with the The Last Champion movie trailer should get a A plus plus. !! Incredible job. Editing and music overlay hit a home run. Definitely hit my emotional nerve. Great story....
Honestly this was a great movie with a beautiful story. I've heard people saying it was bad because "it didn't have enough wrestling." Well here's the thing... if you're looking to watch a high school wrestling match, I recommend going down to your local high school to do so, because this isn't what this movie is or is intended to be. This movie is about second chances, redemption, perseverance, and community, and it's portrayed through the use of a high school wrestling team and a former Olympic wrestler.
So if you're into sports related movies and love a good story to go along with it, this movie is for you and I highly recommend.
