Fighting With My family

I am not a huge wrestling fan but saw the trailer for this last week and watched it last night. It's a really good film and very funny. I didn't realise until the end of the film that it is actually based on a true story. Worth a watch.

Saw this last week. DH is a huge wrestling fan, me not so much. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this film. It is a film I would watch again.

I absolutely hate wrestling (I love The Rock though 😉 ) but really enjoyed this film.
OH booked it and I had no idea what we were going to see.
Stephen Merchant plays ‘awkward’ so well 😆

As we were leaving the auditorium we noticed the guy who plays the blind kid was there with a group of friends who were all congratulating him.
I guess he must live locally

Interesting how it came into being because Rock was watching a Channel 4 documentary when in the U.K. which featured the real story and he thought it would make a good film. I didn’t have high hopes when I read Stephen Merchant was also directing but it’s got really good reviews.

My partner loved wrestling when he was a kid and we live in Norwich so we went to see it on opening night. The cinema was packed and everyone was giggling, it was a great atmosphere. Be prepared to suspend your disbelief a little bit (no spoilers!) and stay for the credits to see footage of the real Knight family.

We're not wrestling fans but really enjoyed this film. DH grew up in Norwich so was enjoying some of the location shots!

Saw this today it was really good, I enjoyed it!
A good insight into WWE which I knew absolutely nothing about, and now have a new found respect for! Great family footage at the end too.
