Summary: Some redeeming value, but not much
Review: Ready to Rumble is not a good movie by any means. As a comedy the jokes are very sophmoric and the two leads give wrestling fans a bad name. However there are some redeeming factors that in some ways make this a better movie.The plot here is that the current King of Wrestling (Oliver Platt) is brutally dethroned by the an Evil promoter and his henchmen Diamond Dallas Page. From there two bumbling fans go on a quest to get Jimmy King back to the top. Along the way they encounter variouse WCW talent as well as other interesting characters. Easily the best moments come when either they show wrestling matches and when Marlon Brandow is on the screen. Yes Marlon Brandow is in this and is so over the top that in my opinion steals the show. However despite the cool wrestling moments and Marlon Brandow there really isn't much to look at here. The only thing worse than what this movie was a majority of the time was the fact that it spun off into a real WCW storyline that really sucked and made to some fans a hated man out of David Arquette. Past that if you really should, rent this... or else I will lay the smackdown on you... wait wrong promotion.

Summary: ready to rumble
Review: Ready to Rumble is the dumbest act of uncivilized humor since Dumb and Dumber. It's alright but I wouldn't buy it I'd record it. The plot is 2 Jimmy the King fans go crosscountry to find him that's about it. I'm done so buy.

Summary: ... Fresh New Comedy With A Great Cast ...
Review: Ready To Rumble, starring David Arquette, Scott Caan, RoseMcGowan & Oliver Platt is one of the funnest movies to watch!Filled with hot stars, a great script and hilarious lines, Ready To Rumble fills the mold of a great movie! David Arquette [Scream] plays Gordie with all his "dumbness" and stupidity. He is a hilarious actor with a great future... Scott Caan [Varsity Blues] plays Sean, Gordies best friend. His clever and some-what smarter (not by much) lines show he is a bit more intelligent that Gordie, but just as obessed with wrestling. His career is definately rising... Rose McGowan [Jawbreaker] acts along side Arquette again (before in Scream) as Sasha, the lead Nitro Girl. Her gorgeous face, beautiful body and talent gives her role a great push. Her acting career definately has a future... The film also features Oliver Platt, Bill Goldberg, Diamond Dallas Page, and Joe Pantoliano. It is a great film and is recomended to all audiences!

Summary: Tries to be funny, but fails
Review: Summary:
Jimmy King (Oliver Platt) is the 'King' of professional wrestling, where everything is supposed to be fake, right? Well, when King abuses his place as the champion, his manager, Titus Sinclair (Joe Pantoliano), gives Dallas Page the go ahead to make their championship match real. King doesn't actually stand a chance and loses the title. Watching in horror and dismay are King's two greatest fans - Gordie Boggs (David Arquette) and Sean Dawkins (Scott Caan). Resolving that King was defeated unfairly and believing that King is actually a decent guy, Gordie and Sean decide to find King and help him get his title back. Along the way they sing Pink Floyd with nuns, see Oliver Platt in a dress, have wild sex with one of the wrestling world's dancers, Rose McGowan, and try to stay ahead of Gordie's dad, Richard Lineback, who is a policeman and wants Gordie to become one. My Comments:
I just want to know one thing, did Oliver Platt do his own stunts? Jimmy King gets beat up on a regular basis and Oliver Platt just doesn't seem to be the kind of guy that could play that role. Anyway... The movie is kind of funny in that it's making fun of wrestling fans, at least, sort of. It also incorporates a number of actual wrestlers, including Bill Goldberg (I) and Steve Borden (I). But in the end, the comedic attempts are, well, attempts. The majority of the humor is slapstick potty humor and just isn't that funny. I'm not sure that I laughed out loud even once. It just didn't cut it on the humor end. Perhaps this is kind of like Zoolander in that you really have to be into the industry (wrestling in this case, fashion in Zoolander) to get the humor and see all of the subtle insinuations. I'm not and I definitely didn't find this to be that funny. Overall, don't waste your time unless you actually watch 'professional' wrestling or like potty humor. The movie isn't funny, the story is ridiculous, and the wrestling, though supposed to be real, is even more fake than the stuff you see on TV. I gave it two stars for making fun of wrestling fans.

Summary: Great comedy movie, but DVD could use more features
Review: The movie itself is a great comedy about two wrestling fans (Gordie and Sean) from Wyoming, who travel to Atlanta and New York to help out their fallen hero Jimmy "The King" King. The movie takes place within the WCW organization and has cameos by many of the wrestlers who were in WCW in early/mid 1999. The main plot of the movie is how these two fans help Jimmy "The King" get back into the ring after witnessing him getting cheated out of his title at a WCW Monday Nitro show. This movie is a good comedy. But the plot may be a little weak if you are not a wrestling fan. I do recommend this movie to anyone who is a wrestling fan, ESPECIALLY if you are a WCW fan. The language may be a little harsh for some kids. It is not anything you haven't heard on WCW before, just a lot more of it. My one complaint and reason for writing this is to say this DVD has almost no extras to it. The wrestler interview (DDP and Bam-Bam) and Nitro Girl interview segments are only 20 - 50 seconds long each. You do get the Bif Naked Video and the movie trailer. And the audio commentary is good in some places. But that is it of the extras on the DVD I have. So if you buy it for the movie, you will not be disappointed. If you buy the DVD looking for extras, you'll feel like you just got suplexed.

Summary: An fun comedy/wresling film.
Review: The Plot:Two simpleminded wresling addicts(David Arquette and Scott Caan) believe they can and help thier favorite wresling(Oliver Platt) to relive his career to fight back. Fans of the World Championship Wresling might like this silly comedy, because a number of real life wrestlers appear in cameos. DVD`s has an strong anamorphic Widescreen(1.78:1) transer and also an excellent Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround. Included:An running commentary track by the cast. An good fun. Grade:B+.
