Hawk's kid is legit smarter than him even at age 12, but he could definitely use some physical fitness tips.

Did they explain why he needed to take his entire 18-wheeler to pick up his kid?

Don't mean to disrespect the sport, but is there really an arm wrestling strategy other than "try as hard as you can to push the other guy's arm down"?

Kid didn't need the weights adjusted for these reps. Killer.

As the years have gone on I think I actually do like this kid more. He's not really been wrong too much.

Just kind of in a "spend time with/get to know his kid" way.

Hawk's assertion that you have to be smart to drive a truck is...questionable?

I mean, he has to have a normal car right? I don't know a lot of truckers, but I know a few and they all have normal vehicles for when they're home and not hauling shit cross-country.

It does help when you have to cook your books for state regulations.

My theory is that he is broke as fuck due to the working so much he was gone for a decade and has an old truck without a bunk and refusing to stay in a hotel/motel.

Lots of extreme facial expressions, apparently.

That original Mario Bros. arcade game might be worth more than any character other than Stallone and Loggia made making this movie.

I only saw bits and pieces of this movie when I was younger, but I remember 90% of that kid's dialogue being "I hate you!"

I'm also not sure how wise arm wrestling on a glass pinball table is, but...OK.

I'm comfortable enough now to admit to whatever extent I liked this movie after it came out was probably due to not having the greatest relationship with my dad, so a weird kind of wish fulfillment thing. Also I was basically the same age as this kid.

We're what, 40 minutes into the movie and virtually everything Stallone has done makes him look like the bad guy to any sane person.

They sub-contracted this job out to a lesser class of hired goon and that's going to cost Mr. Cutler.
