Peaceful Warrior

Dan Millman meets The Karate Kid when a gas-station sage sicces him on the secret of surrender. A college gymnast’s bruised shoulder and ego get walloped by a midnight mentor who teaches that limits are illusions. A mid-tier tale propelled by Nick Nolte’s gravel and Scott Mechlowicz’s wide-eyed rush.
