"This is neither a story of glory, nor a story of defeat. It is a story about a journey. A journey to create something great that people will want to see and support. The intimacy of the film makes the ups and downs on this road relatable to anyone who watches it." --Doobious.org
"The Booker features some terrific side characters, including a licensed personal banker who turns into a brute inside the ring, as well as Tara "Pandora" Young, a mother who admits that she likes to wrestle as a substitute for actual fighting." --Creative Loafing, Atlanta
