cheese

Rating: 4/10 (21 July 2018)

Accepting the wishes of his sick ex-wife (Susan Blakely), truck driver Lincoln Hawk (Sylvester Stallone) tries to reconnect with his son Mike after a ten year absence. The grandfather Jason Cutler (Robert Loggia) had put the boy in military school and prevented Lincoln from contacting him. Lincoln is a legendary arm wrestling champ and a struggling truck driver. The grandfather works to gain custody after his daughter death.
I don't like the kid. A bratty kid is a well accepted trope but one that has never been my favorite. It's not like he's cute either. Annoying cute kids can be funny. This kid is basic annoyance. Stallone is restricted in their relationship. I'm not loving him either. It's unreasonable for him to crash his truck through the gate. He hasn't shown himself to be a violent man. It would be better if the guards start a fight which he ends by crashing his truck. It muddles up the moral superior position. It's also pretty cheesy although some may find some fun with the cheese. If you're one, then enjoy.
