About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a cheesy, so-bad-it’s-fun wrestling brawl with cartoonish villains and macho energy, similar to Ready to Rumble; Not for you if you need grounded drama or polished acting.
Pros: goofy 80s action fun; wrestling nostalgia factor; big villain presence | Cons: clichéd thin story; wooden overacting; uneven wrestling energy
