I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Knuckleheads is that type of movie where you feel yourself one of the good guys , relaxed , having fun , secured and definitely will reach the happy endings ; A perfect weekend's family movie where laughter and joy are guaranteed .The crew in general showed perfect harmony and fit their roles accordingly well ; Of course we don't have the first class names here and that's supposedly match well with the general idea of a failure ex-wrestler with lot of debts upon his head , so , yes , it's expected , he will drag with him along the way a bunch of , let say dreamers ... Even the bad guy , the vicious money monger played by Farina ain't that far from that whole vision . And yet , and like i've mentioned before , all the faces are familiar , so close to our hearts .I know the scenario isn't that original and genius ,but the presence of an unusual giant child made the whole difference , created the whole expected and unexpected bizarre situations , so yes , this movie have indeed something else to add ... Here , I wonder for an instance if that poor bear was real or a cast , hehe ...Nice film , i enjoyed every step in it .

I just finished watching Knucklehead and I absolutely loved it. It is hilarious most of the time and very sad at times, and I really love the funny and sad twists. I was expecting it to be just another time-wasting movie that will depend entirely on its main actor's fame, but it definitely surpassed my expectations.All the actors in the movie were great. Mark Feuerstein and Merola Hardin really hit the spot and play their characters perfectly, and so did all the other actors in the movie.Paul Wight "The Big Show" surprisingly is a brilliant actor. He is hilarious and portrays his character's emotions flawlessly. I'd go as much as saying he's a much better actor than he is a wrestler.Critics and people who are into movies like The Godfather should avoid this movie and not start criticizing and nominating it for worst movie in history as this is just a comedy for the family.So buy/rent it for the weekend, sit on the couch with your family, get your pop corn ready, and prepare to start laughing at a giant acting like a 12 year old! Gotta love Knucklehead!

I have, for reasons unknowable, watched the majority of movies produced by WWE Films. Perhaps it's because I was a wrestling fan for quite a long time growing up, but a quick channel change during Monday Night Football commercials (or during the NFL off-season when I will watch Raw from time to time) and I am unable to recognize the majority of the current roster. I know, as should anyone with a modicum of taste in movies, know that a movie produced by a wrestling company and starring a wrestler is most likely going to bad, yet for some reason I keep coming back after being proved right time and time again.Knuckleheads is the first comedy from WWE Films, but like all the other movies made by WWE (with the possible exception of The Condemned, which while not good was better than it probably should have been)it is pretty bad. While Paul "Big Show" Wight may seem like an easy acting target on paper, to be quite honest this is not his fault. In fact, Wight probably gives the best performance, and other than Austin may be the best WWE wrestler to act in a WWE Film. The rest of cast however is all kinds of terrible.Whomever wrote this film was obviously influenced by other films because there isn't a hint of originality to be found here. The whole "giant kid" thing has been done before, as well as saving orphanages and the very predictable romantic subplot. In fact there is nothing in the movie that you couldn't see coming from a mile away. As for laughs, I laughed a total of one time, at a scene involving Wight on a bus(this scene alone is the reason why I gave it a 2 star rating instead of a one), and either rolled my eyes or sat there stone-faced the rest of time.In conclusion, Knucklehead is not a good movie at all, nor is it even one of the better WWE Films. My advice would be to pass this one up without a second thought.

I wasn't expecting much from this movie a typical comedy with a famous wrestling star. It Felt like a remake Nacho Libre. What did surprise me was The Big Shows performance, His emotions in it really felt sincere this chap CAN actually act in fact i would go as far as saying he would make a better actor than one of his wrestling performance acts. its not a side splitting movie but does have its moments. In all, The actors did a good job, The cast was good. The comedy was funny in parts, the story wasn't anything new though. in all a well acted fun family movie not just aimed at wrestling fans as in fact there is not actually a lot of wrestling in it which i am actually glad of as when there was wrestling scenes it was the poorest performance of acting in the movie. You certainly wouldn't think of big show as a professional wrestler, yes the scenes were that bad!. Move over Mr Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) there's a new wrestling actor in town.I would rate @ 6.5
