A Truly Great Film
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're a fan of director Darren Aronofsky, then this is the perfect film for you. Aronofsky's take on a battered wrestler (Rourke) piecing his life together and going through daily struggles is phenomenal -- and it makes you wonder if current wrestlers have lives like the one that Rourke goes through. The acting is tremendous in this flick, with solid lead performances by the aforementioned Rourke, along with Marisa Tomei and Evan Rachel Wood. There's no doubt in my mind that The Wrestler is one of the best movies of the 2000s and it will continue to stay up there for years. To go along with that, the pricing has always been solid, ranging anywhere from $7.99 to $12.99. For that price, I definitely recommend that anyone purchase this movie because it is that good. Definitely check it out if you haven't already.

Great Movie.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This movie is an emotional movie for me. It is about a wrestler who as gone well past his prime and is getting older and well....just not on top anymore and is watching his world around him moving forward and his is seeing that he is still kind of living in the past and hasn’t really went forward with his life. His health is failing and he is trying to make sense of it all. All in all it is a very good movie, with a wonderful cast that tells a great, meaningful story as well. Worth checking out if you’re into drama type movies as well as wrestling. Good movie, all an all!

One of Aronofsky's best
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had seen this film when it was in theaters back to back with Slumdog Millionaire. I enjoyed both at the time but I remember liking Slumdog a bit better…most likely because the pacing was probably better for doing a movie marathon in the theater. And while I still highly enjoy Slumdog, I find myself watching The Wrestler more often. It's more thought provoking, more emotional, more visceral. I had just purchased the blu ray version of both films recently and am so happy blu ray can give a more accurate transfer of film than dvd was capable of delivering. You get the full, natural grain without compromising the detail and sharpness that occurs with dvd. It's like being back in the theater again.

Beautifully crafted film
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This movie is unapologetically depressing. But worth the watch as a treatise on the craft of filmmaking. The acting and direction are superb. And, bonus, Marisa Tomei is smoking hot. Wow! Worth the watch just for her.

CANNOT BELIEVE THIS MOVIE IS SO OLD.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.STANDOUT PERFORMANCE BY MICKEY ROURKE. MARISSA SURE LOOKS GOOD FOR BEING IN HER 40S. INFORMATIVE TAKE ON WHAT HAPPENS TO FORMER PRO WRESTLING STARS.

The Wrestler DVD
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not a fan of wrestling at all (and I haven't been since I was in 2nd grade and loved wrestlers like Jake The Snake Roberts, The Big Boss Man & Hulk Hogan). My older brother loves wrestling & wouldn't take "No" for an answer when trying to get me to watch this move. I was pleasantly surprised. So, you don't have to be a wrestling fan to like this film. It's well done.

Great Movie!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mickey Rourke is great in most movies and this one is no different. It is based on Jake the Snake from the old days of WWF I think. So if you like wrestling now or then or even if you don't this movie is great. Plus it was on sale when I bought it in the store.

Randy 'The Ram' Robinson!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mickey rourke delivers a great performance as Randy 'The Ram' Robinson! This film did a great job of showing the lives & career situations of these wrestlers outside of the ring. Make sure u see 'the ram' vs 'the ayatollah' 1 last time!

Some of Rourke's finest work.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Despite the low-tech feel, The Wrestler is very tight and disciplined. The score is spare but effective, nothing is wasted in dialogue or action, and the fight choreography and stunts are incredible. Rourke is phenomenal.

Good movie.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Micky Rourke at his finest. He was up for best actor in a leading role Oscar nominated, and should have won in my opinion. Get it.
