  • Affection survives a rough first half and a deeply irritating child; the family-drama emphasis was unexpected.
  • More 1980s edge is desired, but Hagar and the final tournament justify the experience.
  • Arm wrestling is not visually dynamic, though the quick slam works as a finishing move.
  • Using the truck’s grille for curls is admired as an inventive workout.
