What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Lucha Libre : Life Behind The Mask -new to DVD this was made in 2005.A solid look at a barber/luchadore as he prepares for his final match.If you are looking for an overview of Lucha or a historical retrospective- this is the wrong DVD.This follows 4 grapplers on the California/Mexico border that wrestler before small crowds because they are passionate about Lucha.This movie is mostly in Spanish with subtitles.The movie is 70 minutes long with no extras.If you are curious about Lucha culture -this is a nice peek into that world- however the lack of extras make this a Netflix slot at best.
