Movie Review - The Wrestler

Watch.

Unvarnished (and painful to watch) wrestling moves + MILF stripper boobies + a surprisingly poignant performance by Mickey Rourke = An awesome movie.

I knew going in that a movie about a washed up wrestler in the twilight of his career wasn't going to be all daisies and bubbly wine. But Aronofsky (Requiem for a dream) really knows how to spin a pretty emotional tale. Well worth watching, and I think Rourke is going to be taking home some silverware this awards season.

Oh, and Marisa Tomei? Super. Hot.
