When the runaway grandson of one of Mike's (Giamatti) elderly clients arrives in town, Flaherty takes him under his wing and discovers the boy has the potential in the wrestling department.

The New York Times
It is in no way challenging or provocative, but it is never dull or obvious.

This unassuming but quietly winning comedy-drama delivers on the promise of its title.

Empire Magazine
Funny, agreeable and thoroughly enjoyable, if a little bit too neat and fortuitous in sorting out its entangled strands.

Its unfussy realism makes every funny moment and painful setback seem well-earned and believable.
