    Wow, I don't know why reviewers slammed this. Maybe because they don't know a good movie when they review it. I loved this movie. Don't leave because of the low metacritic score. This is a awesome movie. I'm 13, I usally play games, more but this movie got my attention. I loved this movie, forget the score, buy it.

    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.
