Pretty fun movie, especially if you grew up watching roller derby in the 70's. Some funny characters and good performances, especially Marcia Gay Harden as the mom and Juliette Lewis as the villainous 'Iron Maven'.

Mulli wouldn't enjoy it because it stars Ellen Page, but a good time was had by all.

I liked it so much, I bought the movie (for $2.50 at a going out of business sale ;) )

Mulli, you crazy! I think she's an excellent young actress and, I'll say it--she's hot too. Yep, I went there lol
