Tom seems pretty excited about it. ;D

Cool to see a big movie about wrestling come forward. I heard about it a few months ago. Told the fiance about it. She didnt seem too interested until I mentioned that Channing Tatum was the main character ;D

The movie looks incredibly intense and with the start power in it, I think it will do very well at the box office.  Looking forward to it.
And then there was that.

"Instead, Bennett's movie promises to show us the unsightly underbelly of a violent sport and the deranged individuals it attracts."

The writer of this article must have spent some a lot of time around some crazy wrestling programs.  Wrestling in middle/high school, college, and coaching high school, I haven't come across the level of wrestlers this person has.

Sounds like a case of personal bias affecting the author's perceptions.   :P
