3 'The Iron Claw' (2023)
Rotten Tomatoes: 89% | IMDb: 7.6/10
This weekend, don't miss out on one of the most underrated movies of the decade. Sean Durkin’s 2023 biopic The Iron Claw stars Zac Efron, Jeremy Allen White, and Harris Dickinson as the Von Erich brothers, a name synonymous with wrestling fans. As they rise through the ranks of their sport and earn the acclaim of audiences across the country, their fame will soon take a toll on their personal lives.
Featuring a selection of stellar performances, including Efron's career best, The Iron Claw was a critical darling upon its release in 2023. Somehow, in one of the biggest snubs of its year, the movie failed to achieve even a single Academy Award nomination. A heartbreaking tale that both truthfully retells the Von Erich story whilst never sacrificing entertainment value, The Iron Claw is simply a must-watch.

Featuring interviews from 34 current and former U.S. government, military, and intelligence community members, this documentary leaves no stone unturned in its explosive documenting of this wild story.
