The young MMA fighter enters his first fight, seeking to repeat the path of his famous father - the champion in this sport. But the vicious circle of cruelty that the father supported turned out to be a point of no return for his son and a desire to find his own way.
- jackmeatMarch 4, 2025My quick rating - 6,7/10. A pretty damn impressive flick about coming out of the shadows of your famous MMA-fighting father (Dorff). But this movie is far from just that. First, it has to be the best of his performances that I can think of. Also, the extremely well-thought-out process to get us to the inevitable conclusion of this movie was done so well. From top to bottom, the story just keeps you interested without getting flashy in the ring. The diverse family gives a feeling of realism instead of a happy-go-lucky middle-class teen who wants to be a fighter to rebel against society. This one just played out the way it should.
