4.0 out of 5 stars Christian bio of one of the world's most famous wrestlers, April 12, 2005

This review is from: Sting: Moment of Truth - DVD (DVD)

"Sting: Moment of Truth" is a low-budget albeit sharply made Christian-themed indie film that revolves around the personal life and rising career of one Steve Borden. This movie carries with it a powerful message about the spiritual and emotional price that is often unwittingly paid by those relishing in fame and adulation. Wrestling fans will no doubt be delighted to see copious amounts of WCW footage in addition to exclusive NWA-TNA footage with such stars as Jeff Jarrett, Abyss, and the tag team of America's Most Wanted. Though some wrestling purists may balk at certain parts of the film (i.e. the renaming of Sting and Jim "Warrior' Hellwig's "Blade Runners" tag team to that of the "Freedom Fighters"), the movie is fairly accurate in potraying events as they happened (even if alot of it is heavily glossed over). This film, however, is not about displaying Sting's in-ring career highlights. Rather, this movie focuses on Sting the person. More specifically, Steve Borden. From the personal struggles that plagued his life and marriage to the ultimate redemption and salvation he found in Christ, Borden vividly reenacts some of the most potent events that led him to become the man he is today. If the film suffers from any real flaw at all, it's the inclusion of numerous musical sequences which seem to crop up every three or four minutes up til about the 45 minute mark. While this can be annoying at times, it shouldn't detract from the real crux of the story. Essentially, "Sting: Moment of Truth" can be described as a Christian-based love story about one man's quest to find ultimate peace and happiness---with a few scattered scenes of bodyslams, clotheslines, baseball-bat-shots-to-the-stomach, and Scorpion Deathlocks thrown in for good measure. Extras on this DVD include a Director's Commentary option, a requisite movie trailer, a Behind-The-Scenes mini-documentary and a "Making Of..." special. This is a great film for believers, church youth groups, spiritual-seekers, and wrestling fans alike.

2.0 out of 5 stars Average at best see "Sting Unmasked" which is better., February 12, 2006

This review is from: Sting: Moment of Truth - DVD (DVD)

This movie has just highlights of Sting in the ring, no full matches like his other vidoes. The approach taken in my opinion was wrong. Having basically actors portray Sting while having Sting talk over it just doesn't work that well for me.

I found part of just to be some cheap way of putting scenes
together. At times they are effective, other times they're
not. I'd love to see actual footage of the real Steve
Borden in action when he was coming up in wrestling not some
actor. Also the whole bit with that cheap actor posing
as a reporter to get Sting's side of the story was unnecessary.

All Sting needed to do was just sit near the camera and tells
his story which he does later on. The whole issue about
Christianity is fine but for a Sting fan that expects
a little more this was a disappointment. I wouldn't pay
24$ for the DVD if all I'am going to get is some highlights
of him in the ring.

Check out "Sting Unmasked" which is very similiar to this
but has way more matches.

I have been watching sting wrestle since I was 3 years old, now am 21 and still a huge fan. This dvd is a must get for any sting fan. I don't care what anyone say, Sting is the greatest wrestler to ever live.
