It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Live from St Louis, MIAttendance 21,151Your commentators are Vince McMahon, Jim Ross & Jerry LawlerHandicapped MatchRocky Maivia, Kama Mustafa & D'Lo Brown Vs The Legion of DoomRocky Maivia gets the pin for his team after a Rock Bottom on Hawk. This was a decent way to start the show. It had solid energy, the crowd was red hot, and it had enough excitement to keep you pleased. Rocky getting the win was huge.**1/2 out of 5There is a midget match as well. It's a mess from start to finish. That's all I'm gonna sayTag Team TitlesThe Headbangers (C) Vs The GodwinnsThe Godwinns win the title. This was a pretty boring affair with a sloppy finish. The Headbangers were just gaining some steam as champions. The Godwinns would have a very short reign (Thank god!) *1/2 out of 5Intercontinental TitleFarooq Vs Owen HartSteve Austin comes out and hilariously bugs the announcers while taking shots at Owen Hart. Owen wins after Austin costs Farooq the match. Austin's antics dominated this match. Nobody really had a vested interest in this one. Everyone was wanting to see what Austin would do. *1/4 out of 5Los Boricuas Vs The Disciples of Apocalypse. The DOA wins. This was one boring match. The crowd was completely dead for this one and rightfully so. It was nothing but clotheslines, punching, kicking, and all the boring stuff you could think of. * out of 5Flag MatchBret Hart & The British Bulldog Vs Vader & The PatriotBret and the Bulldog win. This was a very inconsistent match that was boring at times and exciting at others. The Patriot had lost all of his heat at this point and Vader was just kind of floundering. It was hard to take them seriously as threats.** out of 5Hell in a Cell Shawn Michaels Vs The UndertakerKane makes his legendary WWF debut and tombstones The Undertaker. Shawn crawls over and pins The Undertaker to win the match. This is the one of (If not the greatest) greatest Hell in a Cell matches in history. It was the first one ever and boy did it deliver. This match had everything. Those paying to see Shawn get his ass kicked in extreme fashion got more than their money's worth. Shawn's beatdown is only beaten by Mick Foley's. Shawn dangling from the cage, only to fall off through the table is unforgettable I can't forget Kane's debut either. It remains one of the finest debuts ever. It would kickstart a classic feud between The Undertaker and Kane. This is simply, classic stuff.***** out of 5This would be a forgettable show, if not for the main event and Kane's debut. It really is a one match show. Because of the main event and Kane's debut, this PPV is required viewing. As a whole, the PPV is forgettable.6/10

Hell match was fine. Taker totally destroy Shawn. 9/10

In Your House:Bad Blood was an awesome event from a time when the WWF was at it's best. The matches were great throughout particularly the main event.The main event pitted Shawn Michaels VS The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell match. The rules were quite simple-anything goes and the wrestler literally had to put his opponent down for the count. The match was quite shocking at the time. Obviously, since this match took place there have been equally shocking matches but back in October 1997 this was big stuff. Michaels and Undertaker hammered into each other and did not let up...plus we got to see the debut of Kane, a wrestler who five years later retains his mystique.The rest of the matches were brilliant as well particularly one match that pitted the late British Bulldog and Bret Hart against the big but agile Vader and the masked Patriot.Getting back to the main event, I believe few wrestling main events have topped this match since it was broadcast.

Aww, I don't even know where to begin here! The entire event is based around the Hell In A Cell match with Michaels and the 'Taker... and rightly so. The whole match was a hunter/hunted-affair with UT at his most dominant since 1991. Shawn got his kicks in though, but when he took out his frustrations on a cameraman, all hell broke loose as the pair went outside, up & over the menacing cell. On a related note, I hope to god those Spanish Announcers are insured, Aye Caramba!!! Not even the appearance of a MYSTERY GUEST was enough to put a damper on this excellent piece of storytelling and brutality. Buy this tape just for that ONE match, it's worth the money!!
