Why all the bad reviews? It's a coming of age movie for two brothers and also the mother and father. The rocky 3 part is just a small part of the movie. Don't listen to all the haters. It's a good story and Frank Grillo is great as always. And Naomi Watts is Greta too. Just because the one brother is gay people want to down the movie. It's 2021 everyone grow up.

Good coming of age movie for both sons and the family
How come nobody believed the kid didn't say it?
One family, three completely separate plot lines. Not a bad concept but somewhat disjointed. Yes, the acting was pretty good. Question though, would a mother actually react to her son the way she did in this movie? I disagree with some of the other reviewers, though. Anyone who uses terms like "liberal agenda" or "woke" would seem to have an agenda of their own.. Frank Grillo and Bobby Canavale were excellent.
What a waste!
The tone had me excited for another coming-of-age teen drama, centered in NYC; a real slice of life.
What I saw instead-right up until I turned it off-was a typical virtue-signaling Hollywood pander that tries to edit history. So many things were tweaked to reflect today's overly-progressive viewpoint. The casting is heinous, and the writing is not representative of how things were, but how some Millenial THINKS they were, or should have been.
Enough of Hollywood's revisionist and pandering faux-morality. This could have been a charming slice-of-life, but is just a flat, clichéd, inaccurate snooze fest.
