It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

First the basics. The premise of this movie is of UT fighting world, yet consistently fails to deliver. The characters are unrealistic and lack any basic level depth to give the viewer the slightest chance to pick a side. Fight scenes are as unrealistic as can possibly be and the locations make no sense what-so-ever. For a movie of an hour and a half, I would have suggested 4 fighters and not 12. This movie fails to tell the story of the UT fight world.On the other hand the movie and its writer, director, producer, financiers and everyone in between tell another story all together. The crumbling of British ideals and the British society in itself. We have a group of servants of the public, a Solder, Police Officer, Female Teacher, a Pastor. All of whom are defeated by criminals, bums and minorities in a hateful and disturbing manner. Is this a personal vindication of the creators of this film? or is it an idealogical insight in to the coming demise of what was one the great British Empire? Chaos, criminals, minorities and the hard working people are thrown to the curb. Is it a sad and true story or a hateful story? I will leave that for you to decide.

You've seen this movie a 1000 times B4 rich and the privileged class bet huge sums of money on lower-class fighters. the fighters have a tragic story and fight for redemption and a better fight. The dialog and script was trash pure rubbish. The problem is we don't live in a world where you have to be a privileged rich bored play-boy to see an under-ground fight club. All you have to do is have basic cable. Or find some fat kid with a bunch of tattoos and give him a 6-pack of beer and a couple VICADONE pills. He'll take you to one. What i did like were the characters they were the most unusual and interesting to be in a fight club. A priest, a teacher, an immigrant, and model. A male model in an underground fight-club. Loved zat.

this movie sucked. the plot really had no story to it. were we suppose to cheer for someone? were we suppose to actually suppose to think that all the fighters who lost would still care about the other fighters? this is the second worst movie i ever seen! (first being House of the Dead) horrible...why, why, why?! the "knock out shots" look like they took it from Def Jam fight for NY. i would understand if the knock out shot was the end of the scene, but no they continue to fight. stupid! bad acting, bad camera shots, very bad directing! if you happen to watch this movie by accident, take look at the fighters and ask yourself why some of them are in scenes. they make no reason for it. did all the fighters get cool with each other, they only show two of them become friends. and what's up with the model, he gets really upset after his first fight, but before the fight they give a reason for him not to care. that's just bad writing.

Having just watched this film - aside from the nice mis en scene and visual trickery employed by the director... this film is embarrassing. Taking itself quite seriously, the film concerns a betting ring of 'executives' who bet on an underground fight tournament made up of 'everyday' people. That happen to be quite proficient in fighting. That IS as far as the plot extends. There's barely ANY characterisation or depth to anyone in this film. The scenes and fight sequences become formulaic, use the same visual techniques and it all becomes just a bit of 'blood for blood's sake' (the spray from the mouth when hit is even in there too!). You'd get far more entertainment from watching your local delinquents fight outside of your Co-Op store. As a Brit, I'm embarrassed this film is even out there. The acting is shoddy to say the least (Danny-John Jules should be ashamed of this). The fighters I believe have no previous 'acting' experiences or abilities, but have been employed purely based on their aesthetically pleasing looks and a competency in martial arts/combat of some form. Once again, the Brits have done themselves proud by illustrating to the world that they can't pull off another genre.
