“This is a good film; great acting, and the wrestling is much more truthful and authentic than Vision Quest.”
“An astutely observed and splendidly acted depiction of good people in conflict.”
“. . . a very well-crafted film. It has the look and feel of a major budget studio release.”
“Reversal truly is a powerful film. From the very first minute of the movie I was 'in.' The cinematography and score were excellent and the audience response afterwards was overwhelming.”
