The Wrestler was pretty good - DeeBye - 01-04-2009
I finally got to watch The Wrestler, and I loved it. Mickey Rourke's performance was amazingly raw and honest. Heath Ledger was great in The Dark Knight, but Rourke's performance might have topped it.
If you never watched a professional wrestling match and never listened to heavy metal music in the 1980's you might not appreciate this movie as much as I did.
If you like Marisa Tomie and are a heterosexual male you will love this movie.

I watched a bit of Gran Turino, and was really disappointed. It was the worst movie based on a video game I have ever seen. It was nothing like the game. There was no racing and no car modding at all:(

Saw it over the weekend. Very worth going to see. Best $21 I've spent at the movies in a long time. And it was the first movie in a while that actually made me care about the characters.
Plus, the visuals of the India slums are pretty impressive.
