Review of Over the Top (1987) by Adriano A — 09 Mar 2012
I've never heard the title of a movie yelled out so much within a movie than in 'Over the Top'. For a movie about arm-wrestling, the arm-wrestling seems to be the worst part of all. The dramatic scenes are very hit or miss, though mostly misses, but they're still more watchable than the silly arm-wrestling scenes.
They're just so surreal and don't fit next to the drama of the custody battle. Even Hawks showing Michael his gym/truck is less cheesy than any of the sweaty arm-wrestling truckers.
