could have been a good family movie but...

Rating: Null/10 (4 September 2011)

I used to wrestle, now I coach and have my 8 and 12 year old kids in wrestling, so I was happy to see a wrestling movie out. My wife and I preview movies before we watch them as a family. VERY disappointed with this movie. I think the first word of the movie is S@#t spoken by a little girl. Cursing throughout the show.
Some may say that, well that's how people speak in the real world. True, but it wasn't always that way. I grew up knowing that if I cursed there would be trouble. I work in the oilfields of western Canada, and cursing is part of the day to day lingo, and yes, unfortunately I do it.
But when I get home with my family, I flip the switch and my language is g-rated. My wife and kids don't need to hear me talking the toilet language that goes on on the job and in 'the real world' when I am at home. Just because society is degenerating to a place where cussing and crass language is the norm does not mean I will raise my kids that way.
Sad that there aren't any movie studios that make family movies without the toilet language. The cursing in this movie didn't make the story or movie any better or any more real. In fact, having a child swear within the first few minutes of the show blew it for me.
This could have been, but is NOT a family movie.
