Mickey Rourke walked away with the Golden Globe for Best Dramatic Actor for his performance as a haggard, aging wrestler in The Wrestler. He beat out Leonardo DiCaprio, Frank Langella, Sean Penn, and Brad Pitt.

This is a tough one - I haven't seen the Wrestler yet (next on my list), but Sean Penn was exceptional in Milk and Frank Langella also did a fantastic job in Frost/Nixon. I wish everyone could win!
1Happy for him, but my vote is still with Sean Penn.
2I always love a Cinderella story... I'm glad he won
3I've seen The Wrestler, Frost/Nixon, and will see Milk soon. I thought Rourke deserved it, but wouldn't have complained if Langella or Penn won.
4langella and penn. all the way.
5An unqualified yes! Mickey Rourke blew the competition out of the water. This was the most authentic performance of 2008. Go Mickey!
6I thought Penn should have won. But that's just me.
7He was wonderful! And his speech was sweet, even thanking his dogs for sticking with him.He's so right, sometimes all you have is your dogs. But they always love you
8They got it so right. He was incredible.
9I am happy for Mickey, but have yet to see the film. He sure had some tough competition.
10It wouldn't have hurt my feelings if Leo or Sean had of won either.
It was so sweet. He has been down and out, but now he is definitely back in. I hope he stays sober.
11He definitely deserved this win! If you haven't seen this movie yet, go and see it. His performance was amazing.
12I wanted Leo to win so bad after Kate
13I haven't seen "The Wrestler," so I'm not really qualified to make a judgment, but I can't imagine that there was a performance better than Sean Penn's in "Milk."
14Anyone who disagreed hasn't seen The Wrestler yet. His performance was amazing.
15for some reason I have no interest in seeing this film. I have seen all the other performances in the category with the exception of Leo. I guess I will watch it this week. I was really impressed with Penn and Langella though.
16absolutely, he was heartbreakingly wonderful
17i heard about this movie as it was in the works, and i think that sometimes you need a come back and this is his. i'm ok with the win.
18I love that he won... and I love when the crazy personalties win and start giving speeches on live TV.
19i haven't seen the wrestler, so hard to say. i was rooting for penn for this one.
20Very happy about Rourke's come back, however absolutely not worthy of best actor.
21Perhaps if I would've seen it before all the hype I would've felt differently.
Sean Penn deserved it - simply brilliant.
I LUV MICK HES ALWAYS BEEN A FANTASTIC ACTOR TO ME HES VERY SEXY!! I GIVE HIM A MILLION PERCENT!!! U DAMM HE DESERVED THAT GLOBE AWARD!! LUV YA MICK 4EVER.
