My Dad is a Heel Wrestler! Review
The movie tells the story of Takashi Omura (Hiroshi Tanahashi), who was once a popular professional wrestler. He is married to Shiori and they have a son named Shota. However, Takashi and Shiori have not yet told their son that Takashi is a wrestler. One day, Shota finds out that Takashi is a wrestler and a heel named Cockroach Mask.
The movie is a heartwarming story with comedic aspects. Hiroshi Tanahashi does an excellent job in this movie as the veteran wrestler who is tired of being a heel and wanting to be a babyface once more.
Shota, portrayed by Kokoro Tereda, is the star of the movie. Furthermore, he does a wonderful job in this film as he tries to understand his father and his feelings.
The movie can be recommended to non-wrestling fans and they will have a great time watching this film. Wrestling fans, but especially those who follow New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), will enjoy it a little bit more with all the cameos of NJPW wrestlers seen in this film.
