7/10
That's my girl
26 December 2023
I think the director here actually did a much better job of letting Trish Stratus come across as herself than any of the WWF etcetera shows I've seen her in, and that definitely made it worth watching. (Of course, it was arguably/technically the Director's job to make her seem like a Bounty Hunter and not herself, but that's another story entirely...)

Long story, but I was fortunate enough to spend about about maybe an hour hanging out with and talking-one-on-one with Trish Stratus after she was hired by the WWF but before she actually started working with them. (Plus some time watching her interact with others.) She was definitely "my type" so I'll never forget that chance to get know her.

Watching this movie, well, the script is bad, there was a plot hole could taxi a 757 Jumbo Jet through, but in addition to watching one of Trish's partners do really funny routines (which is worth watching) we get to see Trish do some of her "MMA" stuff.

What I really liked about the movie though, and this is a bit hard to explain, is it looked and seemed like Trish. The actress, the weight-lifter and the athlete who has to do all those "MMA" moves on WWF and the like.

Again, it's hard to explain, but it just seem like the women I had talked to so long ago. Right there on my screen, doing MMA and reading out her lines in a B movie plot.

Ok... I take back the "hard to explain part" because I just figured it out... I think what I like is that the director of this film did a much better job of bringing out some of Trish's beyond-just-her-awesome-looks endearing qualities better than anyone directing any of the many wrestling show's I've seen her in. And now that I've figure that out, I'm going to copy that to the top of this review, and submit it to IMDB.

Seriously, she's really a great person to get know if for some whatever reason you ever get a chance to.

Oh... btw... there's a photoshoot video of Trish in "Divas: Postcard from the Caribbean".... worth checking out. To be 100% honest, I expected it to filled with B. S. made-up dialog about the girls, but even though they added some "spin" to Trish's background, there wasn't a single word there that contradicted anything she had told me about herself. :-)
