Good Drama!

Rating: 7/10 (24 September 2016)

Mickey Rourke, Marisa Tomei and Evan Rachel Wood star in this 2008 drama. This takes place in New Jersey where we meet veteran wrestler, Randy aka "The Ram" who has been in the business for over 20 years. He decides to retire from the ring to take care of his body. In the process, he tries working at a grocery store and reconnecting with his estranged daughter, Stephanie (Wood) whom he abandoned years prior. Tomei (My Cousin Vinny) plays Cassidy, a stripper who Randy gets close with. This is a good drama with some heartfelt moments and a bit of humor. Rourke gives a terrific performance and should've received an Oscar. I recommend this.
