My husband, son (age 11) and I saw this movie last night. The guys loved the fight scenes. I admit I closed my eyes a few times during the especially graphic scenes (which tells you how real they looked!). I really loved the subplot involving Nick Nolte as the recovering alcoholic trying to find forgiveness from his boys and between his boys. Nick Nolte should win the Academy Award for his stunning performance. Bottom line - everyone in the family will find something to love about this movie. Also, Jennifer Morrison was truly memorable as the wife who doesn't want her husband to fight. Go see this movie!
