Powerful is not a strong enough word!

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2009)

This is going to be short and to the point, but all I have to say is that this is one of of not thee greatest film I have ever seen. I spent years wasting my life in the professional wrestling world and this film is as true as it gets. I cannot tell you how any locker rooms I have been in with man a Randy "The Ram" Robinsons.
This film is not just for the hardcore wrestling fans tho, this is a compelling story about a one time mega star now forced to living in a trailer, seeking love from an aging stripper, and trying to get his estranged daughter back in his life after a near death experience.
The struggles of this mans life makes for a great film, and deserves any and every award it is nominated for.
I may be a little over dramatic in this statement, but for me, this film was life changing. I cannot wait for it's release on Blu-ray.
This film was panned by WWE Chairman, Vince McMahon, and I know why, this movie was too real for him, and accurately portrays the life of many of his former employees.
I cannot recommend this film enough to anyone, I got a free viewing of this film, but will be front row and center at the ticket line to pay to see it again when it comes to my town (Cincinnati, OH) on Jan 16th.
