I like MMA movies. It gives people a view in the world off MMA and that is always good.
This is a movie that might give teenager a Wooo effect. But for everyone over 25 it gives the exact opposite of the deeper message MMA movies normally have.
I am a big fan off MMA and MMA is ever growing. It grows because it provides the audience a learning curve. It tells them more about the athletic part of the process and the skill part of the process.
This movie does not do that. One of the first fighting scenes shows the "typically" evil actor beating some people up. Normally in every professional sporting event it would have stopped after the first knockout punch. I understand that the movie needs to build the "evil" story but there are other ways to do that.
So some people say they enjoy the fight scenes but if you know a bit about MMA you know that the fights scenes are really bad.
To go back to the beginning. Teenagers might find this extremely cool and want to go and train for themselves. But every parent out there will think MMA is a brutal sport conducted by animals and this movie empowers that vision. This movie should have been more about skills and the characters should have been produced more powerful.
