Ummm Yay any thoughts??


I think I liked it but the ending

 

[bigrash]

I thought it was overhyped.

Awesome film. I've watched it a few times; I find it very touching and the way Aranofsky did it was perfect.

Stopped watching about 15 minutes in and returned to Netflix... just wasn't my cup of tea

 

[PepePeru]

it was decent.

I've seen the part's with marisa tomei.

 

[SlitheryDee]

I found it hard to watch. Some movies are a bit too real for my tastes.

I thought it was good, but definitely not an amazing movie. I usually like these kind of movies that just kind of meander along too.

Marisa Tomei is so painfully hot. She's still got the body of a 20 year old.

I thought it was a fantastic, emotional piece.

Couldn't agree more...three thumbs up.

I watched it for the Tomei, but what I got was real empathy for the wrestler. Man, what a life to have and to think most of us are only seconds away from it.

 

[waggy]

i thought it was great. a very good movie.

 

[spaceman]

one of my favorites

 

[dwell]

Depressing crap.

Can't say enough good things about the movie. A dream role for any actor, incredible that it was so well cast. Hard to imagine anyone else now in that role. The Springsteen song is also one of the better 'inspired by the movie' songs ever.

This...and I hate fake wrestling.

I thought it was over-hyped before I watched, and then I watched it and could see what people mean.

It's just so simple at it's core, well thought out, acted, and presented. It was slower than I anticipated but it really gave you a glimpse into his life, good and the bad. I'd say it was worth watching for most people at least once.

awesome movie. Tomei was the icing on the cake that I wanted to lick.

Rourke was the cake?
