Wisdom is a compelling drama film that was released in 1986. Directed by Emilio Estevez, who also stars in the movie as John Wisdom, it tells the story of a young man who is forced to make some tough decisions in life. The movie revolves around John Wisdom, a young man from a working-class family who is struggling to make ends meet. He decides to turn to a life of crime in order to provide for his family. However, when he finds out that his actions are putting his loved ones at risk, he decides to stop.

Feeling guilty for his past actions, John decides to take matters into his own hands and tries to make a positive difference in the world. He and his girlfriend, Karen (played by Demi Moore), set out on a journey to rob banks and distribute the stolen money to those who are in need.

As they continue their robbing spree, John and Karen become more and more confident in their abilities, and they start to feel invincible. However, they soon realize that the law is closing in on them, and they must make a decision about their future.

John's father, played by Tom Skerritt, is a police officer who is tasked with bringing down the robbers. As John becomes more desperate to finish his mission, his relationship with his father becomes increasingly strained.

The movie is packed with intense action scenes, as John and Karen try to evade the police and continue with their mission. However, the movie also has a strong emotional core, exploring themes such as family, love, and the consequences of our actions.

Emilio Estevez delivers an excellent performance as John Wisdom, balancing his tough exterior with a vulnerable interior. Demi Moore is equally compelling as Karen, giving a nuanced and believable portrayal of a woman who is torn between her love for John and her fear of the consequences of their actions.

Tom Skerritt is also excellent as John's father, bringing a depth to his character that adds an extra layer of emotion to the film.

Overall, Wisdom is a powerful and thought-provoking movie that explores the human condition in a way that is both gritty and uplifting. It is a must-see for fans of action and drama alike, and is a testament to the talent of writer/director Emilio Estevez.
