Neither loved it nor hated it

Rating: 5/10 (18 January 2009)

Obviously I am missing something that the critics find so appealing. The film centers around an aging wrestler who has over the years alienated his daughter from never being there for her.
The film shows his rather gritty life combined with the punishment his body takes.
Rather than give you a 100% spoiler and detail why I think his character is a schmuck I will simply say that he blew it with his daughter and Marisa's character...
It wasn't a terrible movie - it was entertaining - but I definitely went away with a different message the screenwriter wanted me to have...
See it and judge for yourself...
