The Last Gladiators

Has anyone else seen this movie? It's pretty good. It's about fighting in NHL through the lens of Chris Nilan's career. He's kind of cracked, as are the other fighters they show. There are some other stories in there as well but it's mostly about him.

 

My take always are that his dad was/is kind of a dick.

The NHL should probably have some sort of help up to transition these guys back into real life.

And Tony Twist has some ###### erotic sado-masochistic thing goin' on.

 

Good movie.

Thanks for pointing it out....just watched it.

 

Just a solid flick....B/B+...worth the time for sure.

 

 

I've always said that the enforcers in general have the biggest hearts. They are wired a tad different. They do what should be and needs to be done. Off the ice, they are usually one of the first to go out of their way to talk to a kid or goof on someone to get a smile. Nilan seems to have tons of that......and at the end, yeah, you want to tell his dad "F-U", because of it.

 

I wonder what Nilan would have done if Lindy pulled his Luke Adam schtick on him???..... :)
