How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A blue-collar underdog story that wears its emotional core openly: a father and son discover each other through the unlikely medium of robot boxing, building something meaningful from wreckage. It's earnest crowd-pleaser filmmaking that doesn't apologize for believing in second chances.
