Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

callanvass Live from Chicago, ILAttendance: 18,197Your hosts are Vince McMahon, Jerry Lawler & Jim RossFour Way Elimination MatchThe Godwinns Vs The Headbangers Vs Doug Furnas & Phill Lafon Vs The New BlackjacksThe Headbangers win. This was a pretty mediocre opener that the crowd didn't care much about. The only tagteam that was catching on somewhat are The Headbangers.*1/2Intercontinental ChampionshipRocky Maivia (C) Vs The Sultan (W/ The Iron Sheik & Bob Backlund)Rocky retains with a roll-up. The Iron Sheik and The Sultan double team Rocky until Rocky Johnson comes out and saves his son. Well, this match was barely above average. The crowd didn't like Rocky at all and chanted Rocky sucks at him. Rocky Johnson coming in to help his son was kinda cool, though.**1/4Hunter Hearst Helmsley (W/Chyna) Vs Goldust (W/Marlena)Hunter wins with the Pedigree after Goldust is distracted by Chyna stalking Marlena. These two don't have any chemistry at all. This was an average match that featured quite a few dull spots. I wasn't impressed.**Tag Team ChampionshipThe British Bulldog & Owen Hart (C) Vs Vader & Mankind (W/Paul Bearer)The match ends in a double countout after Mankind applies the Mandible Claw outside the ring to The British Bulldog. This was another average match. When Bulldog and Owen were on offense it was OK, but other times it was rather uninteresting. The pair of Mankind and Vader isn't as good as it sounds.**Submission Match"Stone Cold" Steve Austin Vs Bret HartBret Hart wins when Austin passes out from the Sharpshooter. He never quit. Bret Hart attacks Austin's leg some more after the match until Shamrock takes down Bret Hart. The referee tries to help Austin up, but Austin hits the stunner on him and walks out on his own. This match is one of the reasons I love wrestling so much. It's responsible for major changes in the WWF. It's one of the rare times you'll see a double turn. Austin turned into a face and the longtime babyface, Bret Hart turned into a heel. It was excellently executed (Pun intended) . It's filled with amazing storytelling, electric atmosphere, and terrific psychology. Austin was already becoming a burgeoning star, but this is the night he really put it altogether. Austin passing out instead of submitting made Austin look like a hero and a real badass. This is without a doubt one of the greatest matches in history.*****Chicago Street Fight Ahmed Johnson & The Legion of Doom Vs Farooq, Savio Vega & Crush (W/The Nation of Domination)LOD & Ahmed win. This was a basic street fight that featured nothing new or unique about it, You've seen this done a ton of times before and done better at that.*3/4WWF ChampionshipSycho Sid (C) Vs The UndertakerShawn Michaels joins for commentary. Bret Hart calls Shawn Michaels out for "faking" his knee injury. He also tees off on Sid and The Undertaker. Sid ends up powerbombing Bret. The Undertaker wins the title with a tombstone after Bret Hart screws over Sid. This is one of the worst Wrestlemania main events of all time. It consisted of mainly, punching, kicking, and rest holds. They really stunk up the joint here, nonetheless, The Undertaker's title win is a cool moment.*People talk about Wrestlemania 9 and Wrestlemania 11 being bad, this Wrestlemania is pretty bad as well. If it wasn't for the classic submission match, this would probably be the worst Wrestlemania ever.4/10

eltacoman1978 I was at this Wrestlemania live in Chicago. As most wrestling fans know this was set to be the long awaited rematch between Bret Hart & Shawn Michaels from the previous years Wrestlemania. Shawn pulled out of the match some time earlier claiming a "career ending" knee injury. This may have been some kind of "blessing in disguise" as in it's place we had Steve Austin taking the place of Michaels,and one of the greatest matches in Wrestlemania history (if not THE greatest)ensued in a Austin/Hart submission match,with UFC veteran Ken Shamrock as special guest referee.What was most interesting about this match was the infamous "double turn" of both participants. Hart was the baby face,or good guy heading into this bout,with Austin as heel,or bad guy. By the end of this match the roles had been reversed which is something not easily done over the course of one match.While Austin's popularity was on the rise prior to this match,it was this night that he really cemented himself as a big time,main event guy.Aside from this match there wasn't a whole lot else going on here,at least nothing of note,other than The Undertaker winning his second WWF title from Sid Vicious,with some assistance from Bret Hart.Definitely worth viewing strictly for the Austin/Hart match,which really is one of the greatest matches in this events history.

Leo Wood The submission match between Stone Cold "Steve Austin" and Bret The "Hit Man" Hart was the best match of Wrestlemania 13. It put the high standards of all Wrestlemania's forever. The match involved a special referree Ken Shamrock, who is a submission fighter. Wrestlemania 13 produced a "double turn" as Bret Hart turned "heel" and Stone Cold turned "face" in the same match. Bret Hart rendered Austin unconscious using the Sharpshooter, while Austin was a bloody mess. We now get the famous close up of Austin bleeding while trying to power out. Austin trys to get out, but Bret refuses and locks it back on. Shamrock asking Austin if he gives up, but recognizing that Austin does not respond and suddenly with loss of blood, passes out from the pain. The famous picture of Austin being put in the Sharpshooter and with a bloody face, will forever be remembered as one of the greatest moments in Wrestlemania History.

Big Movie Fan In my opinion 1997 was one of the WWF's best years. So much happened during 1997. The Undertaker had some great matches. Ditto Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. The New Hart Foundation feuded with Stone Cold Steve Austin. Stars such as Mankind and Ahmed Johnson improved throughout the year and the tag team scene was phenomenal.In the main event Sycho Sid battled the Undertaker. These two had wrestled in mediocre matches during late 1991/early 1992 but this match was brilliant and exceeded my expectations.Bret Hart had an entertaining scrap with Stone Cold Steve Austin in a match refereed by Ken Shamrock. Great match but I've never understood why Bret was booed after the match.Goldust and Hunter Hearst Helmsley had a good match too and performed above their usual standards.There were many other great matches as well. One of my favourites pitted Davey Boy Smith and the late Owen Hart VS Vader and Mankind in a mega match.This was a great event. For some reason even the mediocre wrestlers gave 110% and put on a good show for the fans. This event was the way things should be all the time.
