    To call it retarded would be an affront to retards. A geek joining the wrestling squat because of unresolved dead father issues? A high school girl with IQ below 50 showing her breasts to classmates for $5? Seriously? What world do the writers of this junk live in?

    It's almost offensive that Danny Glover is relegated to playing the mysterious old confidante who haunts the same fishing hole as Cal. By the time Glover's character delivers the homily, Legendary is pinned to the mat.

    It does strive for substance and meaning in a way that gives it an unmistakable Barton Fink feeling, if nothing close to a Barton Fink sensibility.

    You'll come away from Legendary with no sense of what amateur wrestling is about.
