Review of The Wrestler (2008) by Tokyochuchu — 07 Jan 2013
The Wrestler is an excellent character study with a dynamite central performance from Mickey Rourke. It obviously takes a lot of influence from the famed documentary Beyond the Mat; Randy 'The Ram' Robinson is pretty much a dead-on xerox of Jake 'The Snake' Roberts, broken daughter relationship and all.
That said, Beyond the Mat was fantastic and so is The Wrestler.
