"Johnny Knoxville scores a whole lotta laughs" (
Maxim) in this hilarious comedy about the thrill of victory and the agony of deceit.
Pressured by a greedy uncle (Brian Cox) and a pile of debt, loveable loser Steve Barker (Knoxville) resorts to an unthinkable, contemptible, just-crazy-enough-to-work scheme. He pretends to be mentally challenged to rig the upcoming Special Olympics and bring home the gold. But when Steve's fellow competitors get wise to the con, they inspire him to rise to the greatest challenge of all: becoming a better person.
Produced by the fearless Farrelly Brothers (
There's Something About Mary,
Shallow Hal),
The Ringer will keep you smiling all the way to the finish line!
