Audience Member It is impossible to not feel this man's passion while watching this. Undoubtedly Vampiro was always a truly unique performer and watching this you will see how talented he still is. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member wow!! i didn't know half of this... it's a must see if your a die hard wrestling fan! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Even if your not a fan of Vampiro or pro wrestling, This documentary is definitely worth taking a look at Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Anyone who says that wrestling is fake is insane. What they really mean is that wrestling scripted, but it's anything but fake. These men and women put their lives litterally on the line for the entertainment of the crowd. They are the comsumate entertainers. That being said, what we get is a wrestler’s plight to remain relevant, giving us a tired, past-his-prime hero who isn’t always easy to root for. It does give you look at seamy underbelly of professional wrestling. I wanted to like this moive, but the overall story line seemed over scripted and staged. Even Ian's exposition seemed scripted and staged. Maybe if the camera angles were done better the overall effect would have been greater. Some of the best moments come not from Ian, but from his friends. So I have to give this movie 21/2 stars, because I neither liked nor disliked this movie; and thats the problem. The story had the potential to elicit a strong reaction, but didn't because of the way it was told Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting doc. on the Thunder Bay, Ont. native who became a huge wrestling star and idol in far away Mexico. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Thunder Bay represent! Makes me wonder why WWE never picked up on such an obvious talent. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
