MMA version of The Karate Kid
Capitalizing on the mixed martial arts craze, Chris Hauty wrote this pretty decent drama, which can be described as a MMA version of The Karate Kid. Storyline's the same: kid with issues gets beaten by rich boy fighter, gets training by coach and bonds with him, enters tournament. However, Sean Faris and Cam Gigandet definitely excelled in their fight scenes through some hard training. Cannot forget about Djimon Hounsou, who is great as Faris' mentor. He may not be a Mr. Miyagi, but he possesses Miyagi-like qualities. Martial arts film fans may like this one.

Never Back Down has a very mediocre storyline which but still manages to present it in a passable way.

If you like...

If you like fighting movies or simply want a nice boys' night this might be a very good choice.

The storyline is absolutely horrendous. However if you like MMA then its entertaining to see it in a movie. Did the job the first time through, wouldn't see it again.
