You'd think Marisa Tomei playing an adult entertainer would be enough to get people in the door (though I guess it didn't work with last year's Before the Devil Knows You're Dead either). As I posted a couple of weeks ago, we're not giving our dough to the right movies these days. Paul Blart Mall Cop is still #5 in the country! That's appalling. <BR/><BR/>Also, I'm surprised that word of mouth didn't help this movie out more. Everyone I know who saw it really loved it.Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14989379631083901130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205309413661318407.post-60613721758996395002009-03-12T01:56:00.000-02:002009-03-12T01:56:00.000-02:00Great review, guys!

It just goes to show that the art crowd doesn't want to see serious art about someone as white trash as a wrestler and the mainstream crowd doesn't want to see a picture with no budget and a washed-up star.Scene-Stealershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00648906135191982157noreply@blogger.com
