It's been a long time since i've given a movie an A+

Rating: 10/10 (31 December 2008)

I grew up watching wrestling in the 80's. I remember it wasn't until the late 90's that i started to learn the inside scoop and behind the scene gossip when the internet became popular. Fast forward to today, I just finished watching "The Wrestler" and as for my thoughts, wow!! this movie was really awesome.
I won't ruin this movie for anyone but the acting was very solid. The movie itself told a very realistic story of how wrestlers who were famous and considered by many past their prime still want to continue their legacy despite obstacles.
I would recommend this movie even to a non-wrestling fan due to the fact that the movie is mostly analyzing what happens outside the ring.
Micky played his part perfect. The last thing i will add is that the 80's rock music really went perfect with the movie. Thumbs way up!
