I want to see it and I think I will enjoy it tremendously, but I don't see it having the mass appeal to be a big hit in the box office.

movie was awesome, Rourke nailed the role. It won't have mass appeal but it was a great movie.

I must be in the minority, I hated it. I quit watching it after about an hour.

eh, I beat 50% will like and and the other will hate it. I usually hate Indy films because they try to be too artsy fartsy and I watch movies for entertainment not the artistic value.

I am a wrestling fan so that is what interested me in the movie.

I'm a "naked Marisa Tomei" fan so that's what interests me.

No it will not. Not a lot of money going in to promoting this movie. Albeit a great movie, these types of films don't experience box office success which is sad. Truth is, movies like Disaster Movie, Scary Movie 4,5,6...50 will make more money than this movie will.

Same here. Was really pleasantly surprised. Very good movie. Different, but good. Mickey Rourke was absolutely AMAZING. He looked like he was destined for that role. The ending scene and how it ended was perfect.

Best line of the movie: (semi-spoiler)

"I get hurt more out there than in the ring" (talking about his struggles with life)

I highly recommend it.
