“Wrestler” Movie Review
“Wrestler” Plot Summary
A faded professional wrestler must retire, but finds his quest for a new life outside the ring a dispiriting struggle.
Amazing
I had no doubt in my mind that this movie was going to be great. I watched it a couple weeks back, and my god..It’s a work of art, I tell you.
I have never really seen many films with Mickey Rourke, that I remember. I had never really paid any attention to him, until now. He is an amazingly gifted actor. I cannot see anyone else being as right for that part, as he was.
I will be watching this movie again and again. Even if you’re not a wrestling fan, it doesn’t matter..It’s an amazingly, well done movie.
Go see it! 10/10

“Payback” Movie Review
“Payback” Plot Summary
Porter is shot by his wife and best friend and is left to die. When he survives he plots revenge. add synopsis
Brilliant on Its Own
I’d go further than the rest of the posts and say two things: This is a brilliant story, full stop; and it may be one of the cinema’s precursors to another brilliant new bit of thug caper genre, ‘Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.’ This film stands on its own against ‘Point Blank’, a delightful film in its own right. You do not need to know any of the previous film references to make this story work and it stands up just fine on its own, thank you very much
Others have commented on Gibson’s portrayal versus Marvin’s, but consider the context in which each film was made: Without taking anything away from Marvin’s performance I would argue that Gibson delivers the goods in just as satisfying a manner. Gibson’s portrait is more of a twenty-first century graphic novel’s character approach to justice than Marvin’s 1967 nod to cool spy culture and a bad-ass anti-hero’s approach to injustice
The author/director clearly worked this story until it was a lean, mean fighting machine, ruthlessly taking out what didn’t serve the story so that the overall effect is amazing pacing and audience satisfaction by turns of curiosity and empathy with this anti-hero. You cannot make this stuff up from brilliant inspiration, only very hard work can make a story this simple and elegant hang together with such artful complexity
I admit I am a fan of Gibson’s work, but not all of his ‘oeuvre’ is worth watching. This one definitely is, no matter what you think about his personal biases, love life, etc
And although this film is not outwardly credited (as far as I can tell) with having inspired Guy Richie, you can clearly see that this film and ‘Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels’ are part and parcel of a similar vision of late nineties’ heroism, combined with very clever cinematography, excellent direction and muscular storytelling.

Better than expected…
I was surprised by this movie. Going in, I was sure this would be a movie designed solely to push the issues of women’s rights and equality of the sexes. Instead, the movie squarely, but fairly, demonstrated the undeniable differences between men and women. Demi Moore was outstanding in this film – in my opinion it was her best role yet. The movie was provocative and exciting. Definitely not a disappointment at all, but a movie the squeamish may want to avoid. There are some mildly graphic scenes. There are also some unforgettable lines!
