It's really hard to start with this movie. It basically covers two estranged brothers - One who has embraced a quiet, family life; the other, dedicated his time to the United States military. Through a series of events, they come in contact with each other again during a MMA tournament. Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton capture the hearts of the fans with their emotional, tear-wrenching performances, with Nick Nolte as their father delivering the most emotional performance of them all. With the film being a MMA movie, it's strange to think that drama would be so prevalent but essentially it is the backbone of the story.
The addition of The National's 'About Today' cements the final scene as a definite tear-jerker.
