Mickey Rourke is amazing in this, and the story is just so relatable
Incredible film. Mickey Rourke puts on a epic performance. I can relate to Randy the Ram in every scene!
Best depiction of what happens after a wrestlers time has long come and gone. Mickey Rourke knocks it out of the park. 10 outta 10.
Rourke brings amazing believability to his role. The character’s arc is no surprise but still worth watching.
An emotional and heartfelt character study of a wrestler well beyond his prime. Rourke absolutely should’ve won Best Actor for this
Doesn't matter i f you like wrestling, this is a good Drama.
Loved the performances by Mickey Rourke and Marisa Tomei. Simple yet powerful storytelling.
It’s a rare trick for a drama to be simultaneously uplifting and heartbreaking, but this tale of “Rocky in tights” walks that tightrope well
As someone who lives a very self destructive life this movie hit home and made me want to examine my decisions (I won't). Tomei id pretty.
Amazing film. Excellent performances, an introspective plot and some of the scariest, most anxious scenes I’ve ever witnessed. 9/10
