This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Absolutely brilliant

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Although it took me quite a bit of time searching the discount DVD bins, I finally found a copy of this little bit of docu-drama. The movie is a thinly veiled commercial for Jesus. This low budget flick was just like Ted Dibiase's book "Every Man Has His Price" with the search for Christ over shadowing the story wrestling fans want to see. The wrestling in the film is wrapped around "The Message" in archive WCW clips and "re-created" matches that are done in an empty room with a wrestling ring or with TNA help. 1 match has Stinger confronting Abyss for the WCW World Title (WTF?). As good quality as a student film, but the legend of Sting deserves better.

i didn't know what to expect from the film and i ordered it online because you know a blockbuster wouldn't have it. I was very surprised, it wasn't shot on film it was shot on HD but it was the story and STING that brought it all back for me. The story was amazing and I alway loved Sting as a wrestler. To this day, Sting is still my favorite wrestler of all time and i don't think he will drop from that position. It wasn't a big budget movie like a lot of other true stories are, but the thing that sucked me in was the story and the storytelling. I highly recommend it to wrestling fans, and documentary fans, because there is some archive footage that was great to see again.

The movie begins as Sting narrates his start of his wrestling career in amateur wrestling to a newspaper reporter. He explains his modest start, his steady climb to world recognition, his struggle with the other elements with his life, mainly that of his meager family, who is not shown much throughout the movie, and his dramatic conversion to Christianity. The plot from there is well written, with fairly graphic and appropriate re-enactments and file footage clips of landmark wrestling matches throughout Sting's career. The only thing that I didn't accept well is the rushed ending, ending tersely with his conversion following the nightmare of his life (the proclaimed "moment of truth"), showing only home video segments after it in the credits. Though it is considered a spoiler, the good part of the ending can be seen in the trailer in the extra features of the DVD. Before the ending, it is still a decent documentary of a widely recognized sports figure.

This movie was great! Loved the music. The movie takes you back through Steve Borden's wrestling career and even includes his days tagging up with the man who would later become the Ultimate Warrior. And all the way through his career to this point. This movie showcases how it really is most wrestlers, outside of the WWE, most wrestlers have to travel all around just hoping for a break. This movie is a Christian movie, but not too overly Christian if you know what I mean. Really enjoyable! As a wrestling fan you will just love this movie as it shows highlights of the Stinger against Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Randy Savage, and even some updated footage against some of the NWA-TNA stars.
