More Reviews of Ready to Rumble

Pretty funny, only because I'm a wrestling fan. Other than that, it's pretty stupid…

Likable performances from its young cast and a better-than-average script add spark to this formulaic fairy tale and make the wrestling mania…

Another guilty pleasure. As a wrestling fan, it is a great look back at the awfulness that was WCW…

While the comedy was disappointingly unfunny most of the time and the acting wasn't particularly good, it's still a fairly enjoyable and entertaining…

Corny for sure but has a subtle charm and gets better the second viewings. Lots of wrestlers in it too for fans of that…

Everything about this film was bad, the whole premise of the film was awful from the start though…

The movie of my childhood... As a boy, this adventure was my dream…

A very stupid movie, but it's so funny that the stupidity doesn't even get to you it's an okay movie to watch if you want a little bit of laughs…

Either I really am an imbecile or Ready to Rumble has received a far harsher reception than it deserves, because personally, I find this film…

Screw you Arnofsky, this is the best wrestling movie ever! I can quote the whole thing…
