DON'T EXPECT ANYTHING LESS THAN THAN A TRUE BRITISH FEELGOOD FILM I LAUGHED AND CRYRED AND CERSIE MAKES AN APPEARANCE
Watched a while ago, and just remembered it. The information you need is it is unfunny and boring. The story is really bad, and you keep waiting for something interesting to happen and it never does. Not worth watching.
I can't understand the bad reviews for this movie, as its as good as most other lower budget British under dog comedy's in my opinion.
If you remember the family fun Panto style 80's British wrestling with fondness, you will probably enjoy this movie and better understand some of the jokes (otherwise you may not get it).
This movie itself has a pantomime stye villain and other over the top characters (particularly Julian Sands as sweet cheeks) with a lot of over acting but when watching, you just need to accept this is the format of the film.

Shockingly bad. Boring and unfunny with a screenplay fit for a poor school production ( and that's insulting school plays).. My friend walked out halfway through and I should have gone with him. One of the worst bits of screen writing I've ever come across
Far too much drama and far too few laughs, if any. An hour into the movie now and still nothing is happening. It's all soooooo slooooooow and boring. What a pity because the idea of a wrestling team reunion could have resulted in something good. Maybe it's because I am a non-UK resident and don't understand the British pub-culture. Maybe it's just as boring for people who do.
