The movie is wildly uneven but lively and timely - in its own surreal way

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Live from Pensacola, FLAttendance 7,000Your commentators are Tony Schiavone & Jessie VenturaCactus Jack & Vader Vs Charlie Norris & Kane (Stevie Ray)Cactus and Vader brawl with each other before the match even starts. Vader and Cactus win after Vader pins Norris with a very sloppy powerbomb. This match was really sloppy in general. Not bad, just really sloppy.*1/2 out of 5Paul Roma & Erik Watts Vs Brian Knobbs & Johnny B. BaddHA!!! Two of the worst wrestlers in history are teaming. That's ironic. This should be a snoozefest. Knobbs and Badd win after Knobbs cheats to pin Watts. Good god, this was boring as hell. Even Jessie Ventura was getting frustrated. That should tell you something.* out of 5The Shockmaster & Paul Orndorff Vs Ricky Steamboat & Steven RegalShockmaster and Orndorff win after Steamboat costs his partner Regal the match. The only entertaining thing was Ventura's commentary. The rest was snooze city.*1/2 out of 5Ric Flair hands Vader a contract for a match for the World Heavyweight Title at Starrcade. Flair says if he doesn't beat Vader, he'll retire. The Equalizer & Awesome Kong Vs Dustin Rhodes & King KongKing Kong and Dustin win after Dustin pins Awesome Kong with a bulldog. Another terrible match. The Kong's could barely move, let alone wrestle. Awful stuff and we still have ways to go.* out of 5Sting & Jerry Saggs Vs Ron Simmons & Keith ColeSting and Saggs win. Simmons turns heel after the match by assaulting Cole. The heel turn was wise as Simmons wasn't that over.*3/4 out of 5Ric Flair & 'Stunning' Steve Austin Vs 2 Cold Scorpio & Maxx PayneGee! I wonder who is winning this one... Flair and Austin win. This will probably be the best match of the night and that's not saying much since it's barely above average.**1/4 out of 5'Ravishing' Rick Rude & Shanghai Pierce Vs Marcus Bagwell & Tex SlazengerPierce is Henry Godwinn of the Godwinns and Slazenger is Phineas. Rude and Pierce win after Rude pins Bagwell. Boring. Boring. Boring!!!! *1/4 out of 5Roadwarrior Hawk & Rip Rogers Vs Davey Boy Smith & Kole (Booker T)Hawk and Rogers win. * out of 5You know what? I can't finish this PPV. It's seriously that bad. This is without a doubt the worst PPV I have ever seen and that's saying something. Vader wins the Battle Bowl Battle Royale. If you're a masochist, go watch it on the WWE Network. I dunno. Maybe some will enjoy it. It's got a 6.1 rating, so people obviously do. For me it, it was the equivalent of getting my eyes scratched out. 0/10

I Like Battlebowl! Great. Teams, that won, advances to battle royal.1. Vader/Cactus Jack Vs. Steie Ray aka Kane/Charlie Norris - It was nice to see Cactus Jack cooperate with Vader. But Vader screwed up finishing Powerbomb, and Stevie Ray timing that he should go help his partner at final pinning. Stevie Ray do that always. 6/10 2. Paul Roma/Erik Watts Vs. Johnny B.Badd/Brian Knobs 5.5/10 3. The Shockmaster/Paul Orndorff Vs. Ricky Steamboat/Lord Steven Regal - LSR can do the show and I like his technical skills 7/10 Schimme gene Okerlund, go fu*k yourself with these Fifi "funny" shots. Idiot.4. Awesome Kong/The Equalizer Vs. King Kong/Dustin Rhodes - Weak match 5/10 5. Jerry Sags/Sting Vs. Ron Simmons/ Keith Cole - Plain match 6/10 6. Steve Austin/Ric Flair Vs. Maxx Payne/2 Cold Scorpio - That was solid. Ric and Steve still rules. 7/10 7. Rick Rude/Shanghai Pierce Vs. Marcus Bagwell/Tex Slazenger - Rude made this match. Bad ending: Bagwell standed there like an idiot and watched Rude pin his Tag Partner. 6/10 8. Road Warrior Hawk/Rip Rogers Vs. Davey Boy Smith/Kole - Funny ending, solid match. 6/10 9. Battlebowl: Pity, that Steve Austin didn't win at least one Battle Royal in WCW. Though Vader won. Good scenario of the match 8/10
