Availiable on Comcast HBO On Demand


If you have Comcast cable & subscribe to HBO, Main Event is one of the selection on the On-Demand menu.

I saw this in theaters back when I was a kid. It was a 'just because' kind of thing for me. When I was a kid I saw a lot of movies by myself. I found I liked Main Event a lot & ended up buying the soundtrack record and going back to see it a few more times.

Plus, Ryan O'Neal was still a hot guy at the time so that didn't hurt! I think it was a commercially successful film when it was released, though I think it got mediocre critical reviews.

I bought the DVD a few years ago too & it's fun to watch it every now & then.
