Those final lines in the movie hit like a truck


"Do you know why you're sad dad?"
"I guess its because i used to be a brother...and now i'm not a brother anymore"
"We'll be your brothers dad"

Man a line in a movie hasn't hit me as hard as that did in a long time, i mean its nearly impossible not to choke up when you hear that, especially after seeing how close Kevin and his brothers was throughout the movie.

His kids' replies were the ones that really got me. Wish they had drawn that moment out a bit more. In fact, not that it was *bad* or anything, but I'd say the editing was the weakest aspect of the film. Still liked it a lot. Just could have tightened it up a bit in the first couple acts.

I knew absolutely nothing about the story and it knocked me out.

and afterwards, they played upbeat music and gave uplifting facts about Kevin’s family + WWE HOF … it’s almost like the movie, after all the depressing events we saw, sent the message that Kevin ended up all right in the end
