So he was the one who made the Fountain! .. The Wrestler is nothing like either The Fountain or Pi/Requiem. It’s just a solid charming feel-good/sad film about a Wrestler who is washed out with a daughter who hates him and a stripper who likes him as a friend. No magic in filming or effects. Just a good ol’ plain movie that I am sure you’ll enjoy. It has this solid quality feel to it. I was expecting something Bigger, so I was a tad disappointed. But the movie is good for what it is, no doubt.
And you get to see a lot of Marisa Tomei’s breats, which is AWSOSOME: Not only is she a very talented actress, she’s smoking hot. Always has been and always will be. She will be one of those who with time will qualify to become a G-MILF (GrandMother I’d Like to Fuck)
And besides, if you like the acting of Mickey Rourke and think he brings a cool to the screen, it’s not to be missed.
Need I remind you the coolness of The Cook in Spun?
Btw. The Aronovsky is making a RoboCop movie Holy fuck, this could be interesting. I had a RoboCop on high marathon not many months ago, and I noticed a red thread of good humor throughout the trilogy, and actually managed to appreciate it. .. And has anyone seen the Below movie by Aronovsky?
