Director: Brian Robbins
Genres: Comedy
Rating:
A pair of sewage-truck drivers attempt to rescue the tarnished reputation of their favorite pro wrestler in this comedy from Varsity_Blues director Brian_Robbins. Gordie Boggs (David_Arquette) and Sean Dawkins (Scott_Caan) live vicariously through superstar grappler Jimmy King (Oliver_Platt). But when King's manager (Joe_Pantoliano), in a fit of ego, arranges to have his client dethroned to make way for the next hot property, the guys hatch a plan to force a rematch. The only problem is, their no-good hero has sunk into a black hole of self-pity and liquor. Enlisting the help of old-time trainer Sal (Martin_Landau) to whip "The King" into shape, Gordie and Sean run afoul of Gordie's father, who wants his son to settle down and become a cop like him. Meanwhile, curvaceous Sasha (Rose McGowan) moves in on Gordie, but has ulterior motives. So does The King's son (Tait_Smith), who's willing to put his girth to good use in order to exact revenge on his dad for abandoning him. Ready to Rumble features a large cast of real-life WCW wrestlers portraying themselves. McGowan and Arquette previously appeared together in Wes_Craven's Scream. Lewis_Arquette, the star's father, also appears alongside his son as he did in Scream_2. Brian J. Dillard, Rovi
