Foxcatcher
8/10
Wow.
Foxcatcher was a really good film. Notice how I said film and not movie.
That means its classy. I had heard how good this was and just never
got around to seeing it a while back because there have been so many
movies out. This is based off of a true story and one of those type
of films that come out every few years. No explosions or anything,
just really good acting by people you wouldn't expect this level of
acting from.
Steve
Carell plays John du Pont. He is a weird ass rich man from the du
Pont family. He enjoys sports and since he can't play them and wasn't
allowed to growing up he sponsors athletes. He calls on and brings in
Mark Schultz played by Channing Tatum. He is an Olympic gold medalist
with his brother Dave Schultz played by Mark Ruffalo. John brings in
the younger Mark to help train a team for wrestling, Team Foxcatcher.
Things quickly get very weird.
