Not too bad for a Stallone movie

Rating: 6/10 (16 September 2000)

You can't really say that this is one of Stallone's best work, since everyone will remember him as Rambo, insensitive macho he-man. But it is still cool to see him in a movie that is more sentiment than action once in a while. The arm-wrestling competition isn't really that great to watch at all, since you already know who is going to win even before the competition starts. There are some nice moments in the movie involving father and son, but sometimes can get quite contrived. Not something that you;d actually look for in the video store, but I just happened to see it on Superstation.
