Foxcatcher Movie Review

Stars:
Channing Tatum
Mark Ruffalo
Steve Carell


Foxcatcher is based on true events that took place during the late 1980s. Olympic wrestlers/brothers, Dave and Mark Schultz, are recruited by eccentric millionaire John Du Pont to form the next official U.S.A Olympic wrestling team.

However, it quickly becomes clear that Du Pont is less interested in the sport of wrestling and more interested in impressing his aging mother. Thus, he allows his insecurities to get the best of him and takes out his frustrations on Mark and Dave.

All three actors give powerful performances throughout each scene. All of which leads up to a very dramatic conclusion.

On a scale of 1 tamale to 10 tamales I give Foxcatcher a solid 8.5 tamales.
