Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
jiroy haggar 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 .
jhachet I had the privilege, no the honor of meeting the Big Show (Mark Wright) in Dayton, Ohio. He was just as funny in person as he was in this movie, Knucklehead. I do not know if the Big Show, Mark Wright, will read this review or not. Brother you hit a home run with this movie. When you were on SNL (Saturday Night Live) with the Rock (Dwayne Johnson) way back in 2000. You stole the show while the Rock sang the song. The Giant, Big Show, Paul Wight's performance as Captain Insano in the comedy "The Waterboy" ruled. We all have seen other WWE movies that stared WWE talent. I feel that the WWE needs to take a good hard look at Paul Wright as a comedy actor. I m not joking my sides are still hurting from laughing at the bus scene and that stupid side car. I cant wait till my son sees this movie. Then I can look at him and say I met him, Paul Wright. In fact Daddy lost a bet with him and got stuck with Paul's food bill at the "WINGS" place. I wont promote the national wing chain. This movie shows that WWE can not only put on a family show but now they have made a awesome comedy that they can be proud of! Thanks for the laughter
tlsmith1138-641-867191 It may not be too original, but it's been a long time since I have seen a movie this well acted and clean. The Big Show can actually act. The man has some serious acting chops, exhibiting a range of emotion not required in hardcore action movies.The movie screams corny when you read the plot of the movie and realize what company is behind it, but it isn't. WWE finally made a pretty good movie. Even the sound was unusually crisp and reminded me just how good my home theater system can make a movie sound.This movie is in the tradition of the best Disney movies. Disney should make movie this good and of this quality, but they don't do it anymore.If this crew gets together again and makes another movie, me and mine will be right there waiting.Good job, Mr Wright.
MrScowl 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.
