The Wrestler (2008)

June 17th, 2010 · No Comments

Wow. Roarke deserved every award and accolade he got for this role. Not only did you love the guy and hate the guy, but he was in such amazing shape. The performance was undeniably one of the best I have seen in a long time. His interactions with anyone that wasn’t a wrestler were sad and you felt for him because it seemed obvious that the character had no true idea how to have a relationship.

Amazingly great performance, the ending was a surprise, but yet not. I guess it was just not the ending I wanted, though I knew it was coming.

A faded professional wrestler must retire, but finds his quest for a new life outside the ring a dispiriting struggle.
