Plot |
A pair of sewage-truck drivers attempt to rescue the tarnished reputation of their favorite pro wrestler in this comedy from Varsity Blues director Brian Robbins . Gordie Boggs ( David Arquette ) and Sean Dawkins ( Scott Caan ) live vicariously through superstar grappler Jimmy King ( Oliver Platt ). But when King's manager ( Joe Pantoliano ), in a fit of ego, arranges to have his client dethroned to make way for the next hot property, the guys hatch a plan to force a rematch. The only problem is, their no-good hero has sunk into a black hole of self-pity and liquor. Enlisting the help of old-time trainer Sal ( Martin Landau ) to whip "The King" into shape, Gordie and Sean run afoul of Gordie's father, who wants his son to settle down and become a cop like him. Meanwhile, curvaceous Sasha ( Rose McGowan ) moves in on Gordie, but has ulterior motives. So does The King's son ( Tait Smith ), who's willing to put his girth to good use in order to exact revenge on his dad for abandoning him. Ready to Rumble features a large cast of real-life WCW wrestlers portraying themselves. McGowan and Arquette previously appeared together in Wes Craven 's Scream . Lewis Arquette , the star's father, also appears alongside his son as he did in Scream 2 . — Brian J. Dillard |
