Mein WWE Main Event

6 stars for Rick D'ela Thicc the bugeynator bugenhagen. Wouldve given 10 if Ricky bugez had been a bigger part of the movie.

As a fan of "sports entertainment," I thought this was an entertaining watch that should keep the little ones giggling from start to finish.

The story revolves around a young boy who finds a magical luchador mask that allows him to have superhuman strength. Rather than fighting crime like many movies we've already seen, he chooses to enter a wrestling tournament to not only live out his dream, but also, and more importantly, win prize money to help his financially burdened father.

The kids will enjoy the cameos by WWE Superstars, endless cheesy elements, puns and the cartoonish heroes/villains. Parents will enjoy the moral ending of the story and lack of violence (the "fighting" scenes are extremely goofy and exaggerated to the point where they can't be attempted at home).

There are things that adults could criticize such as storyline, special effects and acting, but these are to be expected for what is essentially a straight-to-video children's title. Overall, it is a fun movie for little wrestling fans.

This Movie is about an 11 year old boy called Leo Thompson (played by Seth Carr). He has a passion for WWE and hopes one day that he could possibly even make it and become one of its Superstars. Leo and his 2 best friends Riyaz (played by Aryan Simhadri) and Caleb (played by Glen Gordon) are not what you call "the popular kids" and do seem to catch the attention of Trevor (played by Josh Zaharia), the school bully. One of the times that Trevor is chasing Leo, Leo stumbles across an old wrestling mask like the ones worn by the Mexican Lucha Libre. This is the point things change for Leo. I do think that the target audience for this one is children and teens and obviously WWE fans, the children and teens will get the funny parts, the silliness that adults may not, the messages that are within the movie are plain for all to see and maybe relate to. If you do not like WWE, then i think that you maybe shouldn't watch this movie. For you WWE fans, with it being an official WWE title, then you do see some of their Superstars making appearances.

This was the last, and debatably worst, project I was in as a background actor. For 4 days, I filmed the climax cringing and shaking my head at every bit of this brutal sequence I was participating in. The filmmakers know their main audience is kids who are WWE fans, and if they fall for lame WWE narratives they can get away with an excruciatingly lazy story and forced conflict that does these actors no service. The obvious wire work on all the fighting was cheap and sucked too. Are we really this easy to please with a slapdash feature length WWE advertisement when we're 10 years old?

Amongst it all, I can safely say the hip, grandma character is the worst goddamn thing you'll have to sit through. "you just got Grandma'd" will go down as the single worst piece of dialogue of 2020. Thank you Ken Marino for giving us just one funny character amidst the cringe.

Anyways, don't watch this. Maybe this quarantine shutting down all film productions is exactly what this industry needs to get its head on straight.

Great movie I really enjoyed it!!! I think a sequel should be done in the future!!
