What an awesome soundtrack from the 80's. The acting from actors and actresses was spot on. I enjoy watching these feel good movies, there aren't too many wrestling movies out there with this story-line approach. There are some funny moments.
We watch a teenager develop from being a boy who becomes a man and plans to succeed in making wrestling history by dropping down two weight classes...that is a lot of weight to lose. I really enjoyed this movie and I am sure you will too if you feel like watching a semi-inspirational drama/sport movie. Also, look out for a very young Forrest Whitaker and Matt Dillon. Linda Fiolento (maybe I spelled the surname wrong) is hot as always.
