Full Plot Details

Jeff Bauman is a well-intention-ed but underachieving Boston native who works at the deli counter of a Costco and lives in a small two-bedroom apartment with his alcoholic mother, Patty. One day at the local bar, Jeff runs into his ex-girlfriend Erin, who is attracted to his kindness and charm but finds herself constantly frustrated by his lack of commitment. After learning that Erin is running in the Boston Marathon to raise money for the hospital she works at, Jeff asks every patron in the bar to donate and then promises Erin he'll wait at the finish line for her with a big sign. The day of the Marathon, Jeff scrambles to make it to the finish line on time but reaches it just before Erin reaches the finish line. As she approaches a bomb goes off right where Jeff is standing. After being rushed to a hospital, both of Jeff's legs are amputated above the knee. When he regains consciousness, Jeff tells his brother that he saw the bomber before the explosion. Patty calls the FBI, and Jeff is able to give them a description of Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Local authorities capture Dzhokhar Tsarnaev days later, and Jeff is hailed as a hero.

Movie Reviews

Cinema Scope - 10/10 by Angelo MureddaAs a procedural about the work required to come back into one's body after a major physical and psychic trauma, Stronger is surprisingly compelling. It does well by its subject's non-hysterical response to his new life post-injury.
Buffalo News - 10/10 by Michael BeebeGyllenhaal's best acting comes as a paraplegic forced to adapt to a frustrating new existence.
eFilmCritic.com - 10/10 by Peter SobczynskiStronger is a really good, engaging and powerful film.
amNewYork - 10/10 by Robert LevinGyllenhaal offers further evidence that he's one of the finest actors working today...
National Newspaper Publishers Association - 10/10 by Dwight Brown[Jake] Gyllenhaal's best performance to date.
Awards Circuit - 10/10 by Joey MagidsonNever manipulative yet always captivating, this portrait of one ordinary man is an extraordinary motion picture.
Salt Lake Tribune - 9/10 by Sean P. MeansAs good as Gyllenhaal is, Maslany is the foundation of Stronger... she channels Erin's swallowed pain and guilt -- the notion that Jeff wouldn't have been there that day if not for her -- in a performance that's pure fire.
Próxima Tanda - 9/10 by Mario AlegreDavid Gordon Green brings an emotional honesty that these type of films usually lack.
Cultured Vultures - 9/10 by Danielle SolzmanJake Gyllenhaal and Tatiana Maslany both deliver top-notch performances in the inspirational Stronger as the film defines what it means to be Boston Strong.
Tampa Bay Times - 9/10 by Steve PersallGreen studies characters, allowing scenes more time to expand personalities and usually knowing when to cut. Stronger is his most conventional, audience-friendly material ever but is still a movie of such quiet intimacies.
