Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

The tag-team match and the women's match are blink-and-you'll-miss-them. William Regal vs. Edge is forgettable. Vince McMahon vs. Ric Flair in a Streetfight is better than it looks on paper (highlight: Vince doing the figure four leg lock on Flair!). Chris Jericho vs. The Rock is the best match of the night. The Royal Rumble is entertaining as expected, because of continuous action, but FULL of jobbers. Only about 4-5 out of the 30 guys look like they have a legitimate chance of winning. The biggest surprises are The Big Show's and Kane's quick eliminations, and Mr. Perfect lasting so long (he makes it to the final 3). The Atlanta, Georgia crowd is raucous throughout the night. **1/2 out of 4.

1. WWF Tag Team Title Championship: Champs-Tazz/Spike Dudley Vs. Dudley Boyz - Short match with clean victory. Tazz made D-Von submit by submission 7/10 2. Intercontinental Title Match: Champ-Edge Vs. William Regal - Card was changed. Regal scored with brass knuckles 7/10 3. WWF Women's Championships: Champ-Trish Stratus Vs. Jazz - jazz is super machine! She should won that title. But Trish defended, even with broken hand. Believable. 5/10 4. Street Fight: Ric Flair Vs. Vince McMahon - Classic match with Flair like we used to see hundred times before, but this time he won! 6/10 5. WWF Undisputed Championship: Champ-Y2J Vs. The Rock - Not that good like match on Vengeance, but still great. Chris won again! 8.5/10 6. Battle Royal - Good surprise was, that Mr. Perfect approached. No surprise was that Triple H won. 7/10

This wasn't really a bad Royal Rumble. In fact all Royal Rumble's are the best, this one was good & was definitely interesting & surprising.FIRST MATCH- TAZZ & SPIKE DUDLEY VS. DUDLEY BOYS W/ STACY KEIBLER FOR THE WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPNot that much of a good opener, but this was a decent match. Tazz & Spike Dudley win after Tazz locks in the Tazzmission on Bubba for the win to retain their World Tag Team titles. 3/10SECOND MATCH- WILLIAM REGAL VS. EDGE FOR THE WWF INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP Another pretty decent match as well. Edge beats William Regal up as much as he can but to no avail without the referee seeing, William Regal gets brass knuckles & uses them on Edge to get the win to become the new WWF Intercontinental Champion. 3/10THIRD MATCH- JAZZ VS. TRISH STRATUS FOR THE WWF WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP SPECIAL GUEST REFEREE: JACQUELINE Pretty boring Diva match, if they actually had a bit more time to really show their great skills, it would of been an okay match itself. Trish wins after a Chick Kick on Jazz to retain her WWE Women's Championship. 3/10FOURTH MATCH- RIC FLAIR VS. VINCE MCMAHON IN A STREET FIGHT MATCH Good match & violent with both men busted open. Ric Flair defeats Mr. McMahon in this grueling street fight contest after making him tap out to the Figure 4 Leg Lock. 4/10FIFTH MATCH- CHRIS JERICHO VS. ROCK FOR THE WWF UNDISPUTED CHAMPIONSHIP This was an okay match. Both men could of seriously done better. At one point in the match Jericho nails two Lionsaults in a row on Rock, but to Jericho's shock, Rock breaks out. Jericho is still able to steal the victory after a roll-up on Rock using the ropes for the win to retain his WWF Undisputed Championship. 4/10SIXTH MATCH- 30 MAN ROYAL RUMBLE This was an enjoyable Royal Rumble as usually most of them are. But this one could of had more superstars battling in the ring at the same time, then it would of been seriously better. But overall it was really good. The final 4 are HHH, Stone Cold, Mr. Perfect & Kurt Angle. Angle eliminates Austin after sneaking up on him & throwing him out of the ring. Austin gets frustrated for being eliminated as he re-enters the ring & knocks Angle, Mr. Perfect & HHH with a chair. All three men get up as Angle goes to clothesline HHH out, but accidentally clotheslines Mr. Perfect out. HHH the clotheslines Angle out as HHH has won the Royal Rumble & will be going to mainevent Wrestlemania X8. 6/10Not really a bad Royal Rumble, the Rumble itself could of been a bit better same as the matches. But still a great Royal Rumble PPV & a good countdown to the Road To Wrestlemania X8.Overall: I'll give it 6/10 & a D+

Wrestling has got progressively worse over the last decade but the Rumble has, if anything got better. This one was excellent. One of the more predictable winners ever but good to see Austin out early, some great stars returning, good laughs and a brilliant scene with Maven & Undertaker.
