Golden Arm

Honestly this movie is hilarious and has so many great elements. It feels like a throwback but also fresh at the same time. It's a shame Betsy isn't given more prominent roles more often because she is one of the funniest people out there. Whoever was involved with this movie needs to keep making movies and more people need to see them.

Just a good good movie that benefits from being incredibly stupid when it wants to be.

The premise of Karate Kid combined with the underdog against the bully storyline of Over the Top.

It's an ok film. Funny at times. Strange at times.

Decent watch but not that great. Can kill an hour or two with this.

This is definitely a low brow film, and it doesn't pretend otherwise. It's also a great story about friendship and finding and then embracing who you are. It doesn't go for cheap jokes, which too many low brow comedies do. Mel and Danny bring tons of heart and we laughed out loud a lot, which for me is saying something, since I skew toward dramas. We had to look up whether women's arm wrestling championships was a real thing and it is! Now I just need to know if the strap tricks are legal... this is more than I planned to write but apparently I'm required to write 600 characters to get a review published.. Give this film a chance!
