Summary: GREAT MOVIE
Review: If you watch this your getting 107 minutes, 35 scenes, one movie full of laughs from beginning to end. I never got tired of watching this movie because it's so good. It stars David Arquette, Scott Caan, Oliver Platt, Rose McGowan, Bill Goldberg, Diamond Dallas Page, Sting, Joe Pantaliano, plus many other great actors that are great. It's about two friends Gordie(Arquette) and Sean(Caan) go to watch there favorite wrestler Jimmy King(Oliver Platt) in the ring. Jimmy's boss turns on him and makes him take a brutal beating by Diamond Dallas Page. Jimmy never wrestles again until Sean and Gordy leave the match all mad and sad until they find Jimmy King and try to get him back in the ring so he can regain his belt and get back at those who turned on him. He gets a wresting trainer Sal (Martin Landau) who helps him get back into wrestling. They continue to train and fight until there big match comes.

SPECIAL FEATURES:
-Commentary on whole movie
-Bif Naked music video "We're not Gonna Take It"
-Up close with Nitro Girls behind scenes segments
-No holds barred behind the scenes segments
-Wrestlers interview gallery
-Filmographies, trailer

Overall this is a great, hilarious comedy movie that anyone will enjoy. If you have seen the movie "Dodgeball A True Underdog Story" and enjoyed that you will love this movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Funny.
Review: If you're not into slapstick humor, I will definitely NOT recommend this movie to you. A lot of the comedy in this movie came from sight gags and physical comedy. David Arquette and Scott Caan play two wrestling fans from Wyoming who take it upon themselves to rescue their favorite wrestler, Jimmy King (Oliver Platt), from wrestling oblivion. The situations that these two guys get themselves into in the process, including entering the STEEL CAGE OF DEATH with about ten other wrestlers and meeting Jimmy King's supposedly dead parents, provide most of the humor for the film.

This is not a "sophisticated funny" movie nor is it a pure "stupid funny" movie. This is just a straightforward flick about two guys of less than average intelligence putting their mark on the world (of WCW wrestling). I didn't laugh all the way through, but it was a decent comedy. If you've been thinking you might enjoy this, but weren't sure, pick it up. You won't be disappointed.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: NOT THAT GOOD OF A FLICK !

Summary: I just flipped it on one night, and im glad i did!
Review: On a normal night just sitting at the PC i went to turn on the TV and see if any good movies were on HBO. I saw "Ready to Rumble" and turned it on. This movie made my night! It's based on 2 not-so-intelligent but die-hard wrestling fans who just witnessed their favorite wrestler "Jimmy King" get screwed out of the WCW Heavyweight Championship, and thrown out of wrestling. They then go out on a quest to find Jimmy King and try to talk him into going out and regaining his Title, but run into problems along the way. The jokes and humor kept me laughing throughout the entire film. Nothing too inappropriate, just some bad language (nothing new if you are a wrestling fan), humor maybe not so suitable for the young ones, and a very brief scene of a bare-backside...that's it. This movie is for anybody who loves a great comedy and definately for any wrestling fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ready to Rumble!!!
Review: Ran across this movie with no expectations, quickly became one of my fav's. Turn your brain off and get ready to laugh yourself silly. Oliver Platt is Genius as Jimmy King. The rest of the cast is hilarious. Best enjoyed with a group.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Ready to Fall!
Review: Ready to Rumble clearly isn't the greatest movie ever because of its genre, but it does have a clear intention, to focus in on teens and major wrestling fans. Ready to Rumble stars David Arquette ("Scream Trilogy", "Beautiful Girls", "Johns"), Oliver Platt ("Funny Bones", "Lake Placid", "Flatliners"), Scott Caan ("Gone in 60 Seconds","Varsity Blues"), Joe Pantoliano ("The Matrix", TV's "The Sopranos") and Martin Landau ("Ed", "The X-Files").

       Basically, Gordy (Arquette) and Sean (Caan)are die-hard wrestling fans and their favorite wrestler, Jimmy King (Platt) just got kicked out of the WCW and won't be able to return. King got a heavy beating from other wrestlers and his boss, Titus Sinclair (Pantoliano). Now, its up to Gordy and Sean to get Jimmy King back into the ring and become the world wrestling champ once again. King must face Diamond Dallas Page (as himself)again, after he was slaughtered by Page to win back the title. He'll also have to face other wrestlers. Gordy gets help from the head nirto girl, Sasha (Rose McGowan, "Scream","Jawbreaker" TV's "Charmed"). Sean also finds love. Sting and Stone Cold play themselves.
     This movie is basically about two morons who want to get the favorite wrestler back into the ring. It's crude, lewd and bad. It does have some comedic brilliance, but not enough of class, style, or a good script. 2 stars is all I'm giving this movie because it lacks a great plot and certain cinematic brilliances. Arquette, Platt, and Caan are great actors, but this is the lowest for all of them. Arquette, a great actor, is in a stupid movie that really has no taste and holds no significant point. This movie is only recommended to wrestling fans. For all of the others, good luck! And yes, Scott Caan is the son of legendary actor James Caan.
