They are brothers by birth, but not by true relationship and friendship. The plot of Warrior allows viewers to watch the lives of Tommy and Brendan merge once again. Their paths separated for a significant time, until they were reunited by an underlying passion for MMA. One son started his own family, while the other served as a Marine. Each son, Tommy and Brendan, sought to break free from the abusive family. So, bitterness has truly built up in the hearts of his sons. The break down resulted from the father abusing alcohol and also abusing the family as a result. The family structure is dysfunctional and broken, which resonates with a lot of American families.
