Jack plays a good face!

Rating: 7/10 (30 October 2006)

If you didn't know a face is the good guy in wrestling.
I'm a big fan of wrestling and I was afraid this movie might do wrestling a injustice but I was surprised by how good this movie was. It can be a bit slow and awkward at times but this is a excellent film.
It is hilarious at times but as I have said at other times it can be a bit slow. It comes from the same people who made Napolean Dynamite and School of Rock, both two of my favorite movies and so I thought this should be similar, and it was but there were differences from those two films in terms of humour.
Jack Black is, like in many of his other films, excellent in this. The rest of the cast is good and most of them were unknowns.
It is laugh out loud funny and even if you don't like wrestling you will probably like this if you liked Napolean Dynamite.
