So Unsettling. So Good.

Rating: 8/10 (8 January 2015)

-Foxcatcher is based on the true story following Olympic wrestler Mark Schultz as he and his team are invited to train at the estate of John Du Pont, in which he finds both a coach and a father figure. But Mark's brother Dave senses something is very wrong....
-I have been looking forward to this film for a year and it didn't disappoint! It was thrilling and great.
-The story is compelling because I didn't know how the true story ended. That ending. Don't look it up ahead.
-The pace is good for a movie like this. I expected it to be slow, but it is too compelling to be slow.
-The acting is Oscar Worthy! Steve Carell is at his absolute best as John Du Pont. Mark Ruffalo pulled in a strong supporting role at Dave, but the real credit has to go to Channing Tatum as Mark. Every movement he did was perfect an captivating. This film is performance driven! -The characters are very complex and deep. And the film is much more about characters than wrestling. It's a lot like Rush, but darker.
-The music is chilling and very well done.
-The film is overall chilling and dark, which some may take as a negative. I loved it. It is pretty unforgettable though. It is alittle hard to enjoy, but unforgettable.
-It is actually rated-R, but could have been PG-13. Almost no language. Some violence, and some drug use. Not too bad.
-So if you are up for a dark film following a true an compelling story with some of the best performances of the year, I've got the film for you. Because Foxcatcher is Amazingtastic! (My new high rating)
Strong 8.5.
