Triunfo: Lutar Para Vencer

Enjoyed watching this movie together with family on Easter - always good to learn about other journeys in left. I think the title was perfect, it was easy to root for Mike. His character was smart, funny, and tough.

I think the actor who played Michael seemed to represent a person with cerebral palsy very true to life.

I liked that it was set in the 80's - the music in the movie was fun. Of course, I certainly hope that the outright bullying that was shown in the movie wouldn't find a place in schools or on teams today.

Stay tuned for the photos at the end, they were a nice touch (Rock Chalk!).

Bravo!

Terrance Howard gave phenomenal performance when it came to assisting this gentleman as his coach, I tip my hat off to the young warrior who persevered despite his troubles deserves a real decent score.

Terrance Howard again a stand up / handsome / Inspiring figure. RJ again same person in breaking bad. Story again an incomplete life become completed after different encounters. Everything did right for their part but just soooo typical and same as before..... I love Terrance so rate a bit higher.

A well intentioned movie that suffers from schmaltzy dialogue, heavy handed directing and an uneven pace. The main character faces all the typical obstacles one would expect from someone with cerebral palsy: an overprotective parent, high school bullies, dismissive teachers, etc. All of which are met with cliche ridden platitudes spewing forth from the protagonist. The first rule in movie making is show, don't tell. Triumph misses the mark here.

Decent performance by Terence Howard. Most everyone else is mailing it in for a paycheck. I think most of the movie budget went to song licensing for the soundtrack. Take a pass on this one as there are far better inspirational stories.

Watched this last night and was engrossed through out.

Ignore the low scores if you've humanity you will love this movie.
