Watched The Wrestler last night. After all the great reviews I was looking forward to seeing Mickey Rourke's alleged return to form. It wasn't dull, it was awful, like a second-rate TV movie disguised as a cool, hip indie flick. The amount of money they wasted making this could have been better spent feeding a third world country. It has every cliche in the book - the wrestling version of, say, a bad Rocky. The music starts with Quiet Riot blasting Mental Health then a bit of Ratt (Round and Round) then Accept/Scorpions/Cinderella and GNR, and just when it's a hair band singalong it's ruined by Bruce Springsteen crooning The Wrestler - fuck it is so crap. Micky Rourke's wrestler would have been great played by Jean Claude Van Damme. What a load of old shit
