Not really being a big wrestling fan, I somehow got dragged into see this movie. For my money, it was kind of ho-hum. Most of the Mankind's family suffering story has already been broadcast on 20/20, where most fans I'm sure got to see it, and there's little new in that area. I did however appreciate how this movie tried to show wrestlers at all stages without being too obvious about it. You see young guys who haven't really proven themselves and most likely will not even get a chance, people just entering pro wrestling, established stars, those with careers on the decline, and just plain has-beens. I have to give it credit for not being a WCW mouthpiece, but I don't think it will win the sport any converts.
