No. 18 (2019) Fighting With My Family. Feb 27th.


Film No. 18 (2018) February 27th.  6:40 PM EVENT Cinemas Innaloo.                        



"Do you know what it's like to want one thing in life and then your own sister takes it away from you." (Zak pleased his case for coach to re-consider hoping to be selected to try-out in the U.S. big league).






If you've never heard the real life story of Saraya-Jade Bevis AKA Paige of WWE wrestling fame then resist Google and go see Wrestling With My Family. This engaging, heartfelt comedy, takes us on the real life (with fairytale short cuts) ride of Saraya-Jade as she, with the help of her wrestling family, stretches (literally) to reach a dream. The script in the hands of Stephen Merchant (Extras, Life's Too Short) begins with a series of belly laughs before being bogged down in predictable sentimentality to finally rise again into a rowdy, raucous, rollicking, fist pumping yarn. The Rock (Producer) is not as pivotal as the poster would suggest but money talks so The Rock does as he wishes. "A comedy about a family that fights a little differently" is a promo catch-phrase that sums WWMF perfectly. It's a crowd pleaser; so much so, I predict small wrestling associations world wide are about to be inundated with new members.  P.S. Stay for the credits. 9GUMS.
