Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

Backlash 2000 was a brilliant event throughout packed with action and there were three really great matches on the event which stood out.The Big Show (dressed as Hulk Hogan) came out and had an entertaining comedy match with Olympic Hero Kurt Angle. The Big Show was great when it came to impressions and he was spot on as Hulk Hogan here.Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho had an awesome match; they are two of the WWF's best stars (even today) and they put on a good show there.The Rock and Triple H also had a match for the WWF Title. The Rock and Triple H have had countless matches and I believe this was their best match. They both put on a cracking fight for this event.Check out Backlash if you can.
