Left me speechless...

...and this rarely happens. Amazing story, characters and how the actors portrayed them. Story about redemption, forgiveness, wrong decisions, bad choices, letting go of the past and moving on. Nick Nolte should've won the Oscar for his performance, he was incredible as a father who wants to make amends and connect again with his sons. Then we have the two sons, who didn't communicate with each other for years and then they're forced to face one another in the ring. The fight is literal and psychological. The ending was so emotional and also liberating. As a viewer, one doesn't know for whom to root, because the characters aren't one-dimensional but very ambiguous. Definitely watch it. I got the chance only recently and I'm glad I did.
