When Sister Encarnación (Reguera) arrive at the monastery, Nacho realises that the only way to win her affection and to save the children, will be by competing as a Luchador wrestler.

Funny in parts; not bad overall
I saw this movie last night at a screening on the Paramount lot. There are some laughs throughout, but the writing isn’t particularly great. Much of what we’re expected to find funny is the nuance in Jack Black’s performance, which has its appeal. He is a great performer and very graceful in the wrestling ring.The movie will probably do okay at the box office, just due to Black’s appeal and the cult status of Napoleon Dynamite and Mike White. If it was as low a budget as everyone on the bulletin board here claims, the movie will make money and everyone will be happy. I don’t think that it will be a huge hit, though, even on the order of Napoleon Dynamite.
Also, I’m curious to know what fans of Lucha Libre will think of this movie. It doesn’t explain anything about the sport and some may even find it insulting, in that it often goes for laughs at the expense of the luchadores.
A great laugh and a lot of fun!
I saw this at the LA premiere at the Chinese Mann Theater. The audience was laughing so much at times, it was hard to hear the film. Jack Black may at times go over the top but he more than makes up for it with some moments of real genius. Besides the obvious jokes there’s an intelligent, awkward humor here for those who look for it. Some critics are saying the plot is too predictable. C’mon. This is often an issue with critics trying to take storytelling in comedies too seriously. If a comedy succeeds in making you laugh all the way through, who the heck cares? Were you going to this movie to feel suspense or to pee your pants laughing? If the latter, you’ll love this film.
