I’ve always been a fan of movie universes where the only way to ease your financial woes is to fight other men—preferably in a tournament.

But Warrior seems to be going above and beyond that. Not only is the main character “upside down” on his mortgage, but he’s also a high school physics teacher-cum-fighter. And his brother, a war hero, is a fighter too. And they’re dad? Nick-to-the-motherfucking-Nolte! And they’re all Irish-American! (I’m also a huge fan of rooting for white guys.)

Check out the trailer:

Suggestion for dialogue change:
Instead of the line “Brendan, it’s me: Pop,” I wish he would have said, “Brendan, it’s me: Nick Nolte.”
