‘The Iron Claw’ review: Dir. Sean Durkin (2024)

The overwhelming thought as the credits roll of Sean Durkin’s The Iron Claw is why on Earth is it not a serious awards contender? Featuring a career best performance from Zac Efron, The Iron Claw expertly and sensitively explores one of the wrestling world’s most tragic families – the Von Erichs. Based upon the real life story of Kevin Von Erich (Efron) and his brothers, The Iron Claw recounts their shared passion for wrestling, and the consequences that brought. The men in the family believed that they were the victims of a family curse. Whilst initially that sounds silly, as events unfold, it is easy to see how they began to believe this.
