Sean Axmaker

“Warm” and “human” are not two words you associate with Darren Aronofsky, but in 'The Wrestler' he is both, thanks in large part to the heartbreakingly open and vulnerable performance from Mickey Rourke, the comeback story of 2008.

The Wrestler presents one of those rare occasions where the performance of its lead actor outweighs a film’s conventional story.

A grittily stark and oftentimes sadly humorous look into the life of a lamentable man and his tragic profession.

The battered dignity of Rourke's performance is so touching that by the time he makes his big statement of faith to his fans even the toughest and most cynical of viewers will find their eyes going moist.
