Review of Murderball (2005) by Clay B — 10 Aug 2005
This sports documentary co-directed by Henry Alex Rubin & Dana Adam Sharpiro is about the sport of wheelchair rugby a.k.a. quad rugby a.k.a murderball. This film follows the players for team U.S.A.
and the coach for Team Canada as they go from the 2002 world championship to the 2004 paralympic games. Murderball shows that these players are just like you & me, and we really shouldn't think that thier that different because there in a wheelchair.
One player named Mark Zupan whos been making the talk show rounds when this came out, he's like this badass dude. Joe Soares was formerly team USA's best player, when he got older, when he got cut he when to be team Canada's coach, and the USA players like hate him for it.
Anyway this movie is probely the second best documentary Ive ever seen, behind Super Size Me. (for the record ive only seen like 3 documentarys other one was Fahrenhiet 9/11 incase anyone is wondering.
).
