8/10
A refreshing take on the wrestling genre.
16 June 2021
First I need to point out the high score I gave to this movie. You shouldn't compare it with Shawshank redemption or Schindler's list. This movie doesn't take itself too seriously and neither should you. You have to view it in the genre and time period when it was made. Technically this movie might be more accurately scored at a 5 or 6. The fight scenes aren't always pixel perfect, the acting is mediocre and sometimes shows some Japanese style exaggerations. However that being said, I thoroughly enjoyed it from the beginning till the end. It's lighthearted and funny and I could have easily watched another hour of this without getting bored. If you're a fan of wrestling then I would highly recommend this. However I do feel obliged to point out that certain scenes might not be suited for younger audiences.
