After building up months of little anticipation new Andre The Giant biopic "Andre: Heart Of the Giant" is finlly set to hit select theaters on October 10th. To those who have seen clips of the movie or its trailer on YouTube, expectations are about as high as the New England Patriots returning to the Superbowl without Tom Brady or Ric Flair wrestling for TNA anytime soon.This movie is meant to be a drama so we can't even label it a mockumentary even though it sure seems to be making a mockery out of something or somebody. Some unknown actors, one a really tall out of shape guy wearing a really bad wig, horrible filming, and the occassional subtitle, only add to how insulting this movie truly is.
Oddly enough, I truly believe though that Andre woulda got a chuckle out of it. Make your own choice before you shell out dough at the theater. Check out the clips below.
