As a wrestling fan, I can tell you this film is not for fans. How do I know this? Well, to start, the late 90's WCW branding throughout what is supposed to be the 70's-80's is mind boggling. Especially them suggesting that Jesse's first match, in the 70's, was against Goldberg, a wrestling star from the 90's. What? Even some non fans knew who Goldberg was. They couldn't give Goldberg a fake name and pretend he was someone else? There was very little effort made in the sets, costumes, or props to shade the scenes in the correct time periods. I don't expect much from small budget film but I expect more than this. There are too many factual errors to list here but I can tell you this film's only truth is that Jesse's name is Jesse Ventura. Almost everything else is a farce. The acting is passable which is why I'm giving it two stars. I guess this film could be for non-fans? But there isn't much substance to keep a non-fan interested. It seems like a school project film that somehow ended up on national television.
