The WWE does some of their best work

The WWE does some of their best work with their historical documentaries and 'American Nightmare: Becoming Cody Rhodes' is a real big budget offering which has just hit cinemas. SYNOPSIS: 'A behind-the-scenes look at the story of Cody Rhodes, featuring 15 years of never-before-seen footage, as he strives to make a name for himself.' The subject matter clearly makes this documentary more for those who are fans of WWE, or professional wrestling as a whole, but this is a really great story. Almost fairytale. Cody Rhodes himself really wears his heart in his sleeve and he reveals so much about himself, his father and the world as a whole here. His story needed this to pull on the heart strings of the audience and to make us actually care about this man. This is everything I wanted and even leaves a few carrots to leave you guessing right up to the end of the show. It's also very emotional, almost visceral in places, and that's a connection I wasn't expecting from this film. I also still got goosebumps from Cody's return at Wrestlemania 38 which was shown here. A fascinating watch. 9/10

AMERICAN DREAM LIVES ON

This documentary is beautiful, emotional, and powerful. The story of American Nightmare is etched without any stutters and is a testament to documentary making. At no point does the doc becoming over bearing or cheesy. The emotions hit the right spot. Let's get into the more nerdy aspects of the doc: a) The production is oustanding, which is unsurprising as WWE really likes to advertise their shows with utmost glamor( and rightfully so), with regards to set designs ( the desert seq in the opening).

B) For a guy who isn't well versed with wrestling history, I learnt a lot from it.

C) Every superstar who was present in this doc. Made it much more enjoyable d) Cody is a lovely guy. Listening him talk about his father and his history with wrestling will never not be fun to watch.

It's a fun watch. I definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys WWE.
