WWE Studios, this movie is more like a headache. Directed by Michael W. Watkins, the movie was WWE first attempt at comedy, after years of producing action and horror flicks. The movie was released in select theaters, but the movie quickly failed. Honestly, I really did had high hopes for this movie, at the time, but after watching it. I have to say, it deserve the bad praise, it got. The movie is about 35 year old orphan, Walter Krunk (WWE's Wrestler, Paul Wight AKA the Big Show) whom destroy the kitchen of the orphanage in which he grew up in, and works. Due to that reason, he has a few days to raise enough money in order to save the orphanage from closing down due to the damage. I guess, Big Show will play the annoying Jar Jar Binks & Al Garner type of doofus here, where he puts everybody in danger and cause most of the problems. Somehow, Mixed Martial Arts manager, Eddie Sullivan (Mark Feuerstein) thinks Walter, the gentle giant would be great for an oncoming fight tournament for a $100,000 prize. In my opinion, the Big Show does not have the body for a MMA fighter nor the skills. I don't even think WWE knows how Mixed Martial Arts even works, as they think it's something out of street fighting borderline pro-wrestling brawling. How many MMA events have you ever gone to, where a man that looks like Goliath, manage by a nun named Mary, (Melora Hardin) fight an 'over the top' Jewish stereotype in a Jewish synagogue?! Not much, right. Oy vey, that was pretty offended. What's next, a battle royal at a mosque!?! Honestly, the next bout is fighting a bear which was worst, watching with all the bad edits of footage of a real bear intermixed with a man in a bear costume. Is fighting a bear even legal? I like how Walter goes on beating up defenseless people and steals their property until the big climatic fight. Walter beating up the kid's dad, who was just trying to put an end to fights taking place in his backyard was pretty harsh. The villain is just as unrealistic as a MMA fighter as the Big Show. I like how the villain fighter name is Redrum. (Lester Speight of Terry Tate commercial fame). I guess the writer just finish watching Stanley Kubrick's 1980's Shining when he thought of that character. Also the main villain, Memphis Earl (Dennis Farina) is cartoony and half of the things, he does, doesn't make sense. I like that he kidnap a kid, and start publicity choking him in a public event. Very smart. The movie seen to be missing a lot of logic. The characters crash a bus in a field in a big explosion and they just walk away from it. Also, how can Walter have never experienced life outside the orphanage? This is never explained or explored. The movie is so out there with its humor that it's more like a miss than a hit in the funny bone. The jokes about Walter flatulence problem are really borderline unfunny potty humor. It's the lowest in the low. I guess, the movie target audience might be children since the movie is PG-13, but the movie is bit too slugged for their attention spans, and not inventive enough to keep adults engaged. The sub-plot of Eddie and Mary falling in love with each other is so forced. The movie is so predictable in its outcome, that you wish that more to "save the house" plot trope. The acting from most of the cast is mostly alright. Anybody that know the Big Show on WWE television, know that he can play the gentle giant clown. It's not his fault that the movie was bad. Still, the movie was so low-budget. That, the movie basically made turn Walter Krank into the Big Show toward the end, to save money on production cost. So, it wasn't much of an acting streak for him. He was actually pretty likable in the movie. Overall: It's not a must watch for any WWE fan, as it has nothing to do with pro-wrestling. It's entertaining, somewhat, but it's nowhere near, where it should be. If you're looking for alright WWE comedy movie, check out 2011's 'That's What I Am'. It's decent and it has a lot more depth than this movie. Still, if you need a movie on in the background to snore. Here, you go. That is a Big Show.

Knucklehead is a family friendly, for the most part, road movie that is total fluff that feels exactly like what it is, a product from an inexperienced film studio that at the time had more money than sense.

Pg-13 era humour is the name of the game as bowel problems, racial stereotypes and cliches writing takes centre stage. Vince McMahon might think it's some good ****, but Knucklehead's worldwide cumulative gross of eight thousand dollars suggests he's in the minority. The film does have some good performances in there, but they are not given much of any interest to do. The plot is cliche, the writing is bland, and a reason to care is non existent. Knucklehead is nothing but below average comedy.

What is more awful than a horrible movie? Awful acting, some people are not made for the acting industry, they just don't have it. The Big Show is certainly one of those people.
