Default Murderball

See this movie. I could not recommend it more. I don't want to tell people about specific bits because it is best for people just to watch it, talking about it doesn't really do justice to how intense it is. Quad rugby pulls absolutely no punches, and neither does the movie.

I saw the real sports special on it....looked crazy as fukc.

The funniest was that one dude was talking about all the pussy he gets because of his disability.

I saw it last night. It's really good. On one level it's a about quadriplegics, on another level it's about hyper-competitive people.

This movie is on my list to see. I may be wrong though. This movie is n't about quadriplegics is it? These guys are paraplegics aren't they. How could you play rubbgy or move the chair if your arms are paralyzed?

Quadriplegics have lost all or some of the use of all four limbs. It appears most of the guys in the movie have at least partial use of their arms, enabling them to wheel themselves around. This is based on watching the trailer.
