The Main Event Ratings & Reviews
Just Add Color
Monique Jones
The Main Event is a film that is well-acted and well-told, and it makes you wish it were longer.
NME (New Musical Express)
Paul M. Bradshaw
More bellyflop than powerslam...
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
The acting and the dialogue are very simple-minded and very much geared toward children. The Main Event has some heavy-handed preachy messages, but that's nothing compared to the relentless plugging of WWE in the movie.
Pajiba
Roxana Hadadi
The only purpose of this movie is to extend WWE's marketing arm into the Netflix realm. The only purpose! I cannot think of any other reason why The Main Event exists.
The Armchair Auteur
Dominic Griffin
The WWE & Netflix have teamed up for a co-production and it's...basically a Disney TV movie rehash of the wrestling portion of Spider-Man's origin? And that's not even a bad thing!?
Screen Rant
Sandy Schaefer
Both amusingly ridiculous and completely by the numbers, The Main Event makes for generally watchable (though very disposable) kid-friendly fluff.
VoiceBoxOffice
Luke Parker
If you have roots in the WWE from any time during your life, you'll be able to watch this movie...but it's propaganda.
Common Sense Media
Renee Schonfeld
Fun underdog story features comic wrestling moves, mayhem.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
The story's lifted a bit by some of the solid comedic actors, and the WWE Superstars who make a run-in, but when the story isn't sloppy, it's paint-by-numbers.
TheWrap
Steve Pond
Fitfully amusing and doggedly heartwarming, albeit in ways you can see coming a mile off.
Decider
John Serba
The Main Event is glossy, cheerful, corny, predictable, poorly directed propaganda, but it's absolutely on point with the branded message! If you love the WWE, you're gonna love this movie!
Polygon
Petrana Radulovic
Through clever subversions of tired kid-movie tropes and a whole lot of heart, The Main Event stands out as one of the most genuinely endearing titles on the platform.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
It's not about the hard work that's intrinsic with all of wrestling, so much as the WWE's open willingness to sacrifice its core values for lazy family-friendly amusement.
Variety
Courtney Howard
Even though the feature contains healthy messages about proving one's mettle using wit and wisdom, it sags far too frequently.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"The Main Event" is harmless, sure, but it's also completely disposable. By the final 3-count, it has already disappeared.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Ordoña
"The Main Event," sadly, never gets off the mat.
New York Times
Natalia Winkelman
"The Main Event" is a light comedy that takes the joys of a real WWE match - the escapism, the performance - and gives them a kid-centric spin.
Punch Drunk Critics
Travis Hopson
The Main Event doesn't live up to the heights of Fighting with My Family or The Peanut Butter Falcon.
Film Festival Today
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
Yes, we can tell a mile away how it will all end, yet can still enjoy the event.
