Wonderful gift
Added 10/30/2009
This was a gift for my brother who turned 59. It was his favorite movie and as I knew he loved the gift. Also the sound track was an added bonus. As always Amazon is the only way to find great gifts. Reliable and fast shipping.

The movie is great, but...
Added 9/15/2009
The movie is really five stars, but this release has problems. First of all the movie needs to be remastered, as it is a bit grainy and faded. Additionally, the case is cardboard and is not very durable. There is not even a decent video menu. But, it is a great move, especially if you were a wrestler.

Not Happy
Added 8/23/2009
I received the movie and it was loose in the case and scratched... The case was also broken! Amazon should have used a padded envelope instead of two pieces of cardboard....

DVD average...movie above average...in fact best wrestling movie out there
Added 8/12/2009
The DVD is average at best,but the movie is excellent. Mathew Modine, who has been around for a long time and has been in his share of flicks, portrays a young high school wrestler in this 1985 flick. He has to wrestle with his share of problems on and off the wrestling mat.The movie shows what a prep wrestler goes through as he prepares for matches and battles weight issues to keep himself in a certain weight class...a single pound over could keep him from competing.Of course,Modine's character has to make plenty of moves off the mat as well as...let's just say he has an older woman issue. A must see for former or current high school wrestlers.And for you "love bugs" out there,you'll love it, too.

Bad Quality
Added 5/14/2009
I ordered this for my husband and recieved a DVD that is far to scratched to even play in a player. Unfortunatly my husband never told me how bad it was so I didn't think I could returned it after so long. Basically he never even had a chance to watch it. comes in cheap cardboard box case, no wonder its in bad shape.
