The Wrestler (1984)

With good guidance from director Zeki Okten but an uninspired script, this story of a brother and his Turkish family influenced by old and new traditions is somewhat uneven. Bilal (Tarik Akan) is devoted to the art of wrestling, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, who were both champions at the sport. Aside from his interest in wrestling for its own sake, Bilal has a chance to win a provincial wrestling contest and thereby bring home a considerable cash award for his efforts -- and so his days are spent in training for the event. Meanwhile, his brother and sister-in-law and their daughter have come back home after living in Germany for 12 years and are finding the adjustment to their cultural roots a bumpy ride. As long scenes of well-oiled and slippery wrestlers in action prepare viewers for Bilal's big event, the struggle of these men is reminiscent of the struggle of Bilal's family to come to grips with a world they may not be able to accept unconditionally.

Moments before the fight that culminates this film, there is an emotional, gut-wrenching scene shared between Rourke and Tomei that lifts the movie from being what was already a very good movie to a truly great one. Then the film concludes perfectly in an initially surprising but brilliantly daring ending that confirms the greatness of this movie. Aronofski's greatest film to date, and a remarkable performance by Mickey Rourke.

Without a doubt Mickey Rourkes best performance ever. He brings such drama, humor, and muscle to the screen that without him it would be just another underdog movie. Marissa Tomei is always great and she really deserved the Oscar nomination. The plot is that of Rocky Balboa, but instead of it being a series, its a single amazing dramatic masterpiece that people will watch many times. Another thing I loved was the look of the film, it had a fuzzy screen the whole time and it gave it a sort of documentary feel to it like were witnessing him trying to win his life back. The wrestling scenes were amazingly realistic znd Darren Aronofsky obviously did his research on wrestling. This isnt just a underdog movie, its about a man who worked hard, made mistakes, and earned his own life and ended it doing it what he loved best, wrestling. Darren Aronofskys best film tied with Black Swan, both amazing but I thought it was funny how he went to wrestling movie to ballerina movie, lol.

Mickey Rourke's acting is incredible. the first person cinematographic style is really unique and gives the viewer an interesting perspective to the dynamics of the character. It all feels very real - something I look for in film. cheers, Mr. Aronofsky.

Just a great movie. Rourke is brilliant, totally deserved all the acclaim he received for the film. Aronofsky is amazing behind the camera yet again. My only complaint is that I'm expected to buy that nobody would want a piece of Marisa Tomei, she's freakin hot!

Mickey Rourke's performance as broken man and wrestler shows a timeliness for both men with repressed lives as well as making the best sports movie since Raging Bull.
