Being a fan of boxing myself for years, I have always wanted to know more about what it is that makes boxing great. This film got me hooked. Great use of archive footage, old interviews with pros, famous trainer Ray Mercer and Joe Moretti who is a highly regarded trainer. It's also interesting to see what happens in the ring when John Avlon calls ringside. For me, it was the most comprehensive documentary I've ever seen about boxing. It looks at the psychology of fighters, the relationship between coach and fighter, and what it's like to have the honor of being in the ring. I think there's no way any fan will walk away from this film without a little bit of knowledge about boxing. I think the other thing that makes it so engaging is that it shows what goes into it. From the amateur training to being in the ring, it shows how a family is involved. We see some of the wives, girlfriends and their experiences in the ring. They also discuss the effects of abuse and what it takes to be a fighter. It looks at the nuts and bolts of the competition, and shows how a trainer, a promoter and their fighters have to come together to keep the events going. It also focuses on the lives of the trainers, and the different psychological symptoms they go through. All in all, I highly recommend it. I found it riveting. 10/10

I have been a strong supporter of Mr. Michael "The Cage Fighter" Jackson ever since his father passed away. I've always admired his innocence, his modesty, and his leadership qualities. He embodies the words of our great statesman, Abraham Lincoln, "Be a good man and then people will like you." He inspires millions and millions of men and women to love our country, to love the world, and to stand up for their rights. This documentary is one of the best films I've seen in a long time. It accurately shows the way the media demonizes, and demonizes the character of our great country. Michael Jackson has always kept his word and he lives up to it. His life has always been filled with love and courage. When the cameras don't stay on him, he speaks so powerfully and it makes your skin crawl. One of his biggest achievements was to encourage women to run for public office, and he is in many ways the only female who has. His celebrity has brought him new respect and recognition. He is an inspiration and he shows the way for people around the world to live their lives to the fullest. I hope that the film will bring more people to appreciate his work and his father's example.

I can't stress enough how grateful I am for this movie! Being a fan of Cage for years I was thrilled when Cage signed up to appear in this documentary. The question for me was not if, but WHEN Cage will appear in this movie. It is impossible to go back to the day when he was a struggling unknown boxer. The answer was a resounding YES. He gave a masterful and emotionally powerful performance as he battled for survival against everything that life had thrown at him, but in his eyes it was simply a part of the game. No wonder he was said to be the best fighter in the world! Not to mention, his son. Jason was fabulous in the role of Mike Goynter. I was surprised to see so many people that knew Mike Goynter in real life in the film, and I'm so glad they included the real story of Mike's life, not the myth that he was a champion. I had always heard rumors that Mike was a hard nut and some people even said he was a "false king". It was very interesting to see Mike's struggles and in the end he showed us how courageous and resilient he is. I had the great pleasure of interviewing Mike in London, England. He was very gracious and happy to be featured in the film. I truly hope that this documentary will be seen in the US, as well. Not only was Mike and his family featured in the documentary, but the story of the boxing gloves, fights, and other misadventures that Mike and his friends, family and fighters had to endure is given in great detail. What makes this documentary so amazing is how it portrayed a story that was very different to the one that most people had heard. Most documentaries can only tell you about one specific event or thing. They don't show you the people's struggles or the details of the real story. They don't really tell you the impact it had on the people involved. They don't really show you the powerful emotions that the people in this story had to go through. The people that were interviewed on the phone after the show told me that this is the first documentary they have ever seen that has touched their lives in such a great way. I will definitely be seeking out more documentaries from Cage and this director to learn more about the way people live their lives. Hopefully, I will find out that Mike Goynter is not just the story of one guy!

I am a very big fan of the UFC, but when I first heard about this documentary, I thought it was going to be another rehash of the "face-off" videos that had come out. I am so happy I was wrong! This film is far better than the "face-off" videos and shows the true fighter, the fighter you can't take your eyes off of. The voice-over of the fighters voice is amazing and fits their characters very well. This documentary has some really interesting tidbits, such as what happens when a fighter is knocked out, or the real-life aftermath of a bad injury. It also delves into some of the most important things in a fighter's life, such as how much a fighter can handle, and the dedication it takes to train and fight. It also gives an inside look on the UFC, such as how they get to the fights, who fights, and the money involved. I would say this is an excellent documentary for fans of the UFC or for anyone that wants to learn more about the people who make this sport what it is. It's worth a watch.

The most powerful films in a genre always involve the underdogs who fight for an ideal which often isn't well defined, such as the rebel soldiers in "The Bandit", or the French peasants in "The Virgin Suicides". Or the workers in "Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain", or the victims of an industrial accident in "Annie Hall". The Cage Fighter is an excellent example of a great underdog story: rich white guy with five children, living in the country (G.I. Jane), who becomes famous for one fight in a ridiculously tiny little arena on the outskirts of Boston. It's also an excellent depiction of some of the basic prejudices in American society, one of which is to oppose a fighter for the right to express her own, free-spirited, or unintelligent thoughts. I think the movie is a must-see for people who love films for their ethical, artistic, and emotional values. It's also a good lesson in the realities of poverty, homelessness, and injustice, something the average person will probably never know.

This film is well done, it takes you from the mind of a young fighter in a rural cage to a cage fighter in the streets. He acts like the real life fighters of this story, who are tired of the glamor and the notoriety of the world of MMA. The Cage Fighter takes you into the heart of the American Cage Fighting Association, which is not large but just local. If you are an MMA fan, you will love this film.

First of all, I have to admit I was not familiar with the subject of martial arts in general when I saw this movie. However, it became clear to me that this movie portrayed the condition of kung fu very well. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to know about kung fu and may want to seek some help in overcoming the inner pain and doubt as to the importance of a martial arts training. This movie's execution of this subject matter is extremely realistic and it has succeeded in capturing the mood of these time periods in a very moving and convincing way. This movie has an artistic and engaging style. I am surprised it didn't receive more acclaim and publicity. This movie is without a doubt the best documentary I have ever seen. I was a little disappointed at the ending of the movie, however, I still strongly suggest this movie to anyone who has ever had the burden of self doubt or doubts and is trying to overcome them. It's a must see. It is a must see for anyone who loves movies. Even if you're not into martial arts, I still strongly recommend this movie for anyone.

At the age of 14, Tracey managed to become a Cage fighter. Having never been in a real fight, she did a lot of research on the internet to learn more about the people who did. She was a fighter because she was passionate about something she loved, and someone who cared about others. When she got to the boxing ring at 17, her talent for hand-to-hand combat was immediately noticed by the fighters in her school. Tracey will forever be remembered as the first female boxer ever in her high school gym. Her unique style of fighting has been classified as "juiced up boxing" and was the inspiration for hundreds of other female boxers. Tracey was an inspiration for women throughout the world and will be remembered for more than just fighting.

You'll need to be a fighter to appreciate the majesty of this documentary. I know I'm not! This film has to do with me and my fight career, and in a way it can relate to anyone who ever wanted to get in shape. I started fighting in high school, and I used to get into fights around the neighborhood. That is when I got into fighting for the first time. I think the movie touched on what it takes to be a fighter, and how difficult it can be to train, and keep up with a training schedule. I know I'm not alone when I say that my training has always been a little more difficult than I thought it would be. But, I still went and got into the gym and trained. And in my heart I'm very proud of what I accomplished in the sport of martial arts. I'm also proud of the fact that I'm still in shape, and I'm also proud that I didn't give up the fight before I turned 30. I don't know if you'll be able to relate to this documentary, but I hope you will. I don't want to give anything away, but I think the fans of the sport will appreciate this documentary. I also want to give my sincere thanks to the people who helped make this film possible. They all showed up to help make this film happen. Thank you to the producers, directors, writers, actors, and the crew. I hope you'll enjoy this documentary as much as I did. It was an honor to be a part of this. Enjoy the movie and see what it was like to be in a fight. Go see this movie. You'll thank me for it.

A few years ago, I watched a documentary on the history of the Cage Fighter, and I was blown away by the technical aspects of it. I had no idea what to expect when I started watching, but I ended up thoroughly enjoying it. This documentary is a great historical look at the Cage Fighter and the stories behind the fights. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys documentaries. It is well-made and very well-made. This documentary is a must-see for anyone interested in martial arts history.

The Cage Fighter is a documentary that shows the life of UFC fighter, Dennis Hallman. The film follows Hallman around the world to show what life is like for someone who fights in a cage. We see the life of Dennis Hallman, a fighter, in the fight business. He has been involved with professional wrestling, but he is very well known for his career in mixed martial arts. Hallman tells the story of his family, friends, and the people he encounters while living the fight life. The Cage Fighter is a wonderful film, that is very informative, and a great way to learn about the life of a fighter.

The Cage Fighter is a brilliant documentary about the fight for the right to be a professional boxing fighter. The documentary begins with the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, who grew up in Alabama in a small town and was forced to train for the state championships. He was able to beat out numerous opponents and become a champion, but the race was already rigged in favor of his opponents. Ali had a dream, that he wanted to be a boxer, but the government refused to allow him to train because of his race. As Ali grew older, he developed the belief that he was a champion and fought in an attempt to break free of the racial barrier. He was stopped by the government who had to be convinced of his manhood. Ali would finally make a comeback when he fought the boxer George Foreman in 1964, he was stopped in the first round. He would fight again in the Olympics and finally the world championship. The documentary shows the first 10 minutes of Ali's fight for the heavyweight title. He is stopped and is knocked down, but he is able to take the fight to the ground and ultimately win the fight. Ali would come out of retirement and win the world title in the next fight. The documentary goes into detail about his comeback fight and his fight against Sonny Liston. Ali would fight for the title against Joe Frazier, but Frazier would beat Ali, and eventually gave him the belt. Ali would return and fight George Foreman and was knocked down, but he would win the fight. Ali would retire from the boxing ring and would be forced to live in exile in Saudi Arabia. The documentary shows Ali's struggle to be accepted in society, and shows how his life was changed. The documentary is a great film that shows Ali's struggle to be recognized for his accomplishments. It shows how Ali was so popular and had a huge following, and how the government was unable to accept him. The documentary shows Ali as a great champion, but it also shows the fight he fought against racism and how he was able to break free of the country's barriers.

This is a very moving and heart-wrenching documentary that you don't see very often. You can easily relate to the fighter's story, their pain, and the emotional toll of being in the cage. It's hard to watch these videos without feeling embarrassed for the fighters and the owners of the gym. This was a must-see for anyone who has an interest in the sport of MMA or sports in general. A MUST-SEE!

As a whole, this documentary is a great education on the importance of being physically fit and how much our lives are in our own hands. The film makes us see that it is often the people that we are most familiar with that are the most unhealthy. The truth is that it is our most personal, most intimate relationships that are the most physically and emotionally vulnerable. Not just the ones we spend our whole lives with, but also the ones that are far away from us and in which we may have less control over our own well-being. What is great about this film is that it teaches us to never underestimate the ability of ourselves and those we love to survive when we are injured. It teaches us that not only do we have to fight the physical injuries, but also the psychological and emotional injuries that we do not experience as the target of the attack. This film makes it clear that everyone has to be physically fit and mentally and emotionally healthy to enjoy the rest of their lives and even to enjoy the ones that are far away from us. If you would like to see this documentary, be sure to watch it in Spanish!

It's the story of a street fighter in the ghetto of Detroit, who fights against the police on the streets. The film follows the fighters life for a while, and how they have to get money to survive. The film was shot in real time, so it's very realistic. The film does a good job at keeping the audience interested in the fighters life. The story is excellent, the fighters life is so good, you want to help them. The fighters life is shown in such a way that the viewer can't help but want to help them. This film is definitely a great film to watch, and you should definitely watch it. I give this film a 10/10.

The Cage Fighter is a documentary on the life of Chris Huckins, a cage fighter in Nevada. Huckins has been in the cage for 18 years. His first fight was in 1984, and he has competed for the United States and for several international promotions. He also became a television personality, a filmmaker, and even a boxing announcer. The Cage Fighter is a very moving documentary. The camera was a little shaky in the beginning, but it was well worth the wait. The Cage Fighter takes you to the world of MMA, where everything is a stage. The camera doesn't just go from one fighter to the next. It goes from one fight to another. The Cage Fighter is a must see. It will move you to tears.

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with this documentary. I've watched all of the movies that are in the "Masterpiece Theatre" (no longer in existence) and I think that this is the best documentary about Cage-fighting that I have seen. It is a well made documentary and the story about the early days of Cage-fighting is very interesting. In terms of the big name actors that are featured, I was most impressed with Donnie Wahlberg. I thought that he did a great job in this documentary. Overall, I think that the story was very interesting and I enjoyed watching the movie.

It seems as though the question of torture has been addressed in an interesting manner on numerous occasions, with variations of each theme being considered by individual practitioners. This film covers one of these differing approaches, and is outstanding. While we may be left with a sense of horror and being either uncomfortable with the topics of torture, or being embarrassed for those who engage in it, this film is able to explain and elucidate the complexity of the subject. This is not a film about the methods employed and the subjective nature of it, nor is it a film about the human mind, which is described as two-dimensional. This film is about our concepts of justice, as evidenced through the relationship between the two main characters in the film. We see a situation which leads to destruction of one character's family, yet these characters eventually receive justice which they were deserving of. The significance of this film transcends its subject matter. It is not simply about the execution of an executioner's work, but also about how the actions of the other actors in the film are impacted on each other. We are shown how they are allowed to embody the actions they were being given, and this leads to the ultimate climax of the film. This is a powerful film and will leave you feeling many emotions. If you are one of the individuals who feels uncomfortable with torture, or are embarrassed for those who engage in it, then this film will leave you feeling very uneasy. This is not for those who are against torture or those who are not comfortable with such concepts. There is nothing in this film to make you question the philosophy of "torture is wrong". It is simply a film that takes an issue that is in a different light, and does not attempt to justify it, but simply demonstrates the effects of torture on the people involved. It is simply an example of a very emotional subject matter, and would be difficult for anyone not to feel a sense of fear and apprehension. This is why it is so important that the story is told with emotion, rather than prose. If a film is able to educate the audience, then the film does what it is meant to do. It keeps the audience interested, and gives them a good understanding of what they are viewing. If a film is to demonstrate a point, then the film must provide evidence. However, this film does not provide evidence. The film simply explains, and this film does a great job of demonstrating the emotional impact of torture. The film is very strong, and in many ways can be considered the perfect expression of an entire program of film-making. Notable scenes include: A man in a wheelchair being strangled by a rope tied around his neck. The camera is held on him as he is strangled. A man is arrested and has his wrists broken. His hands are tied together with a rope. A man is kicked in the stomach. His mouth is opened and he is spewed out. A man is being beaten by other men. He is tied to a chair with his arms and legs restrained, but is able to move. A man is forced to eat his own urine. A woman is hit by a brick. She tries to defend herself with a glass, but is struck so hard it cracks. The film itself is a work of art, and deserves to be shown in theaters across the nation. The performances are all solid. There is not one character that falls into the category of "bad guy", and all of the actors are able to keep their focus on the character they are portraying. This is a testament to the performance of the other actors, and of the director. The story is easily followed, and is difficult to get lost in. We are shown a specific film of events, and this film of events moves us to a point where we understand the film. It is the greatest testament to the art of film-making. A film that will be understood by all.

With all due respect to Michael Moore, but this film is not without merit. I'm not a fan of Michael Moore, but this is one of the most entertaining films I've seen in quite a long time. We see Moore relentlessly trolling the San Francisco Chronicle, on a scale of 1-10. This isn't a dirty film. The Director did an excellent job at capturing the spirit of the Bay Area. I think that is what attracted so many people to this film. I think it really drew me in, despite my distaste for Moore. Now I realize that there is a reason why I despise Moore. I realize now, he's a propagandist. I think the point of this film was to expose the insincerity of Moore's philosophies. After all, if you think the media can be accurately represented, then how do you explain to someone in the middle of a war zone? But Moore wasn't asked. In fact, the entire film was not a pro-war film. I watched the whole film, because I wanted to know what Moore thought of the coverage. I thought Moore was an overly long winded, if you will, P.O.V. The Director knew Moore was an insincerity artist. This was why we were provided with the facts. You don't see Moore do this in a film. I think it will make the other Republicans look like total hypocrites. They say the truth, but they're dishonest about it. What does Moore's pro-war propaganda get him? An Oscar? Like I said, the point of the film is to expose Moore's insincerity. The point of this film was to expose Moore's hypocrisy. If you think Moore is an insincerity artist, then you should see the film. He's not saying the truth. In fact, he's proving himself to be a total insincerity artist. He's not truthful. If you want to see a filmmaker who is an insincerity artist, see Ava Duvernay. This film is a tribute to a filmmaker who has not changed since the eighties. His message is the same. The film is a masterpiece.

First of all, this was a huge thumbs up for me. This was the first time I had watched a documentary. I am actually a documentary and I'm very interested in documentaries but I was so confused and overwhelmed by this documentary. The footage was so precise that it actually made me feel like I was there. I think that this documentary was something really important, so much that I don't even know what to say. To me, this documentary was a huge respect to the history of boxing in the United States. I think it was a great work and a great project. We will always remember the heroes that fought in the fight against the Nazis. This documentary was a great piece of work and a very powerful work. It really made me feel the pain of the fighters of the anti-Nazi fighters. I will continue to watch this documentary as I would like to make a documentary on the history of the boxing. The documentary really made me want to get up and fight in the ring. I don't know if there are more documentaries on the history of boxing in the United States but I think that there should be.

This documentary is a very exciting piece of documentary making. The filmmaker, Damien Vaughn, is a Canadian documentary maker who has made several wonderful pieces of documentary on Canadian history and has also made other pieces on other topics. This documentary on the Woodstock music festival, is probably his best work. His passion for this documentary was very evident. I do not want to give away the ending but it is very touching and will bring tears to your eyes. The film is really worth watching. There is a lot of very moving stuff that the filmmakers have gone through to get this documentary to this point. Some of the filming in the main documentary, the camera man for the main documentary, is very emotional. One of the things that the filmmakers did is taking the best and most professional shots possible. These shots are very long takes, as the people actually have to be in front of the camera for that long. One of the worst pieces of filmmaking in my opinion is the aerial shot, I will have to admit. The last scene of the documentary is very sad but it is not at all a spoiler. You will either see this or not. The filmmakers are most passionate about documenting the Woodstock festival, and their passion shines through in their documentary. You can tell from the documentary that they are really into it, and the documentary is really worth watching.

Cage fighter is a compelling story about a young man's struggle to live up to his full potential. The idea of boxing is the story, but the heart of the movie is the story of the young man who wants to become a boxer. The man's father is a champion boxer and he wants his son to follow his footsteps and follow the same path as he did. He knows that if he does not, he will not be able to get his son the career he deserves. It is an inspiring story that will leave you feeling good about yourself and about your future. It has a lot of symbolism and the theme of family ties is very important. I have a feeling that if you want to see a great documentary, you should check this one out.

This is the most important documentary I have seen in years. Everything is explained and it's one thing to know the details, but a real film maker and an expert on fighter's life, makes you feel as if you know a fighter who has given so much to this sport and got so much from this sport. This is the story of Muhammed Ali and his close friends and fighters. It's not a fairy tale, it's real. If you are a fighter or have an interest in Muhammed Ali or Ali sport, this is a must see. They will all be surprised and proud of what they have accomplished. They'll also enjoy the amazing shots of Ali himself. Not to mention you will get to hear some nice music from the right music legends. Not everyone has to see this, but if you get the opportunity to see it, go for it!

I don't understand why this film is such a huge deal. I would guess that it is because it is not like the other films in the same genre. In the other films you are stuck in a box with some cool fights in between and the fight is cool. This film is about what is really in the box. It shows us people who are just like the boxers. This is because the boxing boxers in the film are constantly fighting. They are pushed to the limit but nothing in their life makes them happy. It shows the people who are pushy or put in a box with no hope and see their life change for the worse. I am not a big boxing fan but this film showed me that life is what happens when we have no hope. I would recommend this film to people who like to watch movies and not to people who love boxing. It is not as good as the other movies in the genre and people who are just looking for violence and will not understand this film.

This is a very well made film. The way it is done is brilliant and authentic. I had never heard of the Cage Fighters before, but the way they are shown is extremely interesting and relevant to the current political climate. The fighters are all heroes to their community and they're all being told how to act, how to look, and how to speak. There's also a documentary about the fighters which is very well made. The documentary is filmed in the same way the fighters are shown in the movie. It's very beautiful and the fighters are shown with great dignity and dignity.

I must admit I'm a bit of a Cage Fighter fan. After seeing the movie I knew it was a big success, but to hear the filmmakers say that they were tired of all the fan mail and would rather not have people asking about it, I was expecting another easy-to-get-for-a-gift-and-get-a-movie-packet-and-get-it-from-the-factory documentary. However, this was a very different kind of documentary. It was a very detailed and realistic look at the Cage Fighter community. You could tell that the filmmakers spent a great deal of time talking to Cage Fighters and had great fun doing so. I also liked the fact that it did not play up the story line of the Cage Fighter community. They did not focus on the controversy, but instead, it focused on the community and what it was like. It did not leave you with the feeling that you were just watching a bunch of people enjoying themselves and not at all taking it seriously. Instead, it kept the focus on the Cage Fighter community and it was enjoyable to watch. They did a great job at showing the community as it was, with all the quirks and the joys of being a Cage Fighter. It's also a shame that there wasn't more of the personal stories from the community. It was a nice, easy way to tell a story about a community that you really do not get to know. The film is a must see for anyone who is a fan of the Cage Fighter community.

I'm a fighter. I have a tattoo on my shoulder that reads "I want to be a fighter" and I was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. I've been a boxer for the past 8 years. I think it's really cool to see the way the people in this country think about our fight and the way it's portrayed. I think a lot of the boxing shows on TV or in the movies are not as real as they should be. The camera angles and the sound that's used in boxing are used so much for dramatic purposes that it's almost like they are telling the audience how to feel. I think it's important to show people that these guys are real and that we can all appreciate that. In addition, I think people need to realize that in this country we all have different opinions and attitudes. I was in a lot of fights in high school and college and it was just so normal for me to be in the corner of a guy that was just beating the crap out of me. There were guys in my corner that were just as good as I was. I think this documentary is a great representation of what it's like to be a fighter. If you love boxing, or even just want to understand the way the people in this country feel about it, I think you will enjoy this documentary.

This film is absolutely one of the best films of the last 10 years.I have watched it many times and it always grabs me. It is a very moving story, with an amazing soundtrack and incredible acting by the leads. There is a very good mixture of the typical actor's styles with some great experimental and experimental filmmaking. The story is very good, although it is told in a very linear way. It is told in a very deep and thorough way. It is a must watch film for anyone who likes documentaries and documentaries about the 70's. It is also one of the best films I have seen, in the last 10 years.

I watched this movie for the first time the other night. I don't like it much. But it's about a guy who fights in a cage-fighter fight and has a whole career in boxing. It's amazing how it's all about the gloves. I would recommend this movie to anyone. My rating is 10. The Cage Fighter is an excellent movie that tells us how boxing is like. A guy is good at boxing and the movie shows the difference between a good fighter and a good boxer. The movie shows how boxing is the best sport ever and how some people who do boxing don't like it. This movie is awesome and will give you a great education in boxing.

I loved the documentary, it really captured what it's like to fight for your country and what it's like to be a fighter. I am not a fighter, but it was very inspirational. I highly recommend the documentary. And that's what it's really about, it's about an hour and a half, so you can put it on a regular TV, and you could get it all and see what it's like. It's not the fight, it's not the fights, it's about fighting, it's about being a fighter, it's about what it's like to be a fighter. I think it's really great that there's a documentary out there, it's really great. I think that it's really great.

The Cage Fighter is the story of five men who train to fight in the cage, to help the poor poor guys in the community that have no other means of escape. The Cage Fighter shows us the truth about the lives of these men. The Cage Fighter is very well done, and I think that it is a very good film. It was a very very long film, but it was so interesting to watch. The Cage Fighter shows us the truths about the lives of these men, and that's what this film is all about. This film is so well done. I think it is very good. It is very well made. It is very well acted. It is very well directed. It is a very good film. It is very good.

I saw this film on a late night drive from my home in Sydney to the Sydney Opera House. It was a hard film to watch and I got teary eyed at times, but I thought it was a very sad story and the documentary style was so real I got choked up a couple of times. The director was an amazing man and I think his heart was in the right place. The documentary style was perfect, the actor played the man and he did an incredible job. The film makers also spoke a lot about the human need for revenge and I thought the documentary style was really interesting. The story itself was just about a man who did something to someone who did something to him and he has to deal with his guilt over it. This is a man who was an MMA fighter and this is what really got him into MMA. He did a very difficult and dangerous job, but he did it because he wanted to do it and it was an act of love. He has to deal with his pain and his guilt over it and his brother died and he was very angry and frustrated. It was a very sad story, but very well told.

I don't usually like to write reviews, but this was just too much. This movie was so powerful that I had to write it. It is a story about true heroism, and the hard and bitter fight of one man's struggle against all odds. The audience is drawn into the story, but it is so sad that the character of Bruce Lee doesn't get any recognition. I felt sad for the man that lost his life. He was an inspiration. I also felt sad for the loss of life in Vietnam. If he was alive today I am sure he would be thrilled about the work he did for the American people. He truly was a hero. I am not a big martial arts fan, but this movie got me interested in watching it. I can't wait to buy the DVD, and I hope that Bruce Lee is well. I have seen Bruce Lee in other movies, but this movie is in a class of its own. This is a must see movie. I can't say enough about it. I wish that the people that made this movie would be recognized and have their names listed in the credits. Bruce Lee was a true American hero. He will be missed, but I believe that the spirit of his memory will live on in the hearts of all who know him.

This film brings back memories of my dad's days in the Navy. We remember seeing this film as kids and watching it again after a long time. I can only remember the story about the fight to protect the cave. This film is a must see for anyone who has ever been interested in war. The people in the film have nothing but praise for the servicemen and women who are fighting in the war on terror. The cinematography is great and the story of the Cage Fighter is certainly worthy of attention. I would recommend this film to anyone who is interested in war.

I have been an avid fan of this movie since I first saw it as a youngster. When it was released to video in the mid-eighties, I watched it often. I also loved the soundtrack. I had heard about the real life story of Danny Hohmann from various sources, and I was hoping that I could do a little bit of research on it. I could not have been more pleased. This documentary is a must for anyone who is a fan of the legendary fighter. You will never be able to find a more accurate portrayal of Hohmann's life. His biographies of two previous boxing matches with John David Jackson are also fascinating, as well as his last fight against the late Wladimir Klitschko. Not only does the documentary cover the whole gamut of Hohmann's life, but it also goes into some other boxing related events, such as his career with Bob Geldof. The documentary also includes interviews with his wife, Susan. The documentary is really a must for anyone who is a fan of the legendary fighter. There are some great stories told about the life of Hohmann, and it is certainly not a film for those who do not like to listen. Fans of Hohmann's life will be glad to know that they will be able to find a movie that is an accurate depiction of his life.

The Cage Fighter is an excellent film. It is a basic film, but the topics and the stories that are told in this film are worth watching. I enjoyed the fact that it was a documentary, and I feel that the way it was done was great. I loved the way the film is narrated, the way it was told, and I thought it was a great film. The film was a bit slow at times, but it is good. It is my second favorite documentary film and I think it deserves more praise.

This is an incredible documentary! That was it. Absolutely amazing. And I could not have seen it better! It was so refreshing to see some unedited footage of "what really happened", and to hear the real facts. I saw so much exaggeration and even some distortion of facts. And yet, the documentary was incredibly realistic and accurate. I'm very grateful to Wladimir to the National Institute for Sport, for funding this project. For what it's worth, the researchers told me there were some 900 deaths a year at the highest level in wrestling, but they only give that as an estimate. So they don't know how many, if any, really died. And of course, if they did, they would not have showed any of that footage. It is an accurate portrayal of the game and should be considered an absolute classic. Please watch it and share it!

Just watched the new film "The Cage Fighter" at the Toronto International Film Festival. It's by far one of the most significant films I've ever seen in my life. I have to admit, I never knew a movie could be so powerful and that all of it was true. The performances are amazing, especially by Dakota Johnson and Jesse Bradford as the two brothers. The film is about a cage fighter who is unable to see at night, and gets his vision in his left eye. But the future of the American dream is in danger because he's unable to fight. But he's determined to overcome this. This is a rare movie, I think, and it is a must see. You can't get anything more powerful than seeing a true story. I'm speechless. I will not give away any more of the story, but you should watch the film and you will have an amazing experience. This is one of the most important films I've seen in my life, and I would recommend it to anybody who needs a movie to watch. You will not be disappointed. 10/10

The Cage Fighter is one of the most powerful documentaries ever made. It is one of those documentaries that you have to watch multiple times to catch all of the details. I have watched this movie 3 times and I feel like I can tell you what this documentary is about the most. The fact that this movie is real makes it even more powerful. This documentary shows how hard it was to be a fighter, the sacrifices that fighters had to make to make it to the top and the dedication that fighters had to become the best fighter in the world. It shows how much it takes to be a champion, and it shows how it takes a lot of discipline, determination and determination to become a champion. The Cage Fighter is one of the best documentaries ever made, and it should be made available to the public on DVD. I highly recommend this documentary to anyone who is a fan of boxing and would like to learn more about it. It is a must see for anyone who has ever wanted to become a fighter.

This is a great documentary. A few comments: I am a MMA fan, but this film was so good that it blew me away. I found it to be informative and entertaining. It makes you understand how men and women train and compete and all the different aspects of MMA. I am a fighter myself and the film was very educational. It makes you understand what it is to be a fighter, why they train, and how it is possible to do what they do. It makes you understand what it is to be a fan, and how to support their favorite fighters. It makes you understand the politics and how to support the fighters who fight in the cage, because it makes you understand how they feel about the fight. You understand that MMA is not just a sport, but it's not just a sport, but it's a business and how it is operated. It makes you understand why people are supporting these fighters and how they are supported by the fans. This film shows you the fight. The fighting is what keeps the fans going. If you are a fan, I recommend this film to you. It is educational and entertaining. It is a must see.

I am a fan of K-1. I am also a fan of Martial Arts. However, I am a fan of Joe Kato and the Cage Fighting. I am the first to admit that I am not the biggest Cage Fighter fan and was disappointed that Joe Kato did not make an official Cage Fighting show. When I saw his fighting in the documentary and when I saw the DVD, I was amazed at the passion and skill he used. The documentary showed him at his best and that he was one of the best in the world. The documentary also showed his past, which is very interesting to see and hear. He was the most decorated K-1 Champion ever. His fight in the Cage fighting was amazing and I have to say that it was one of the most interesting fights in the history of Martial Arts. He showed his talent with the help of Dr. Goh and that is why I give this documentary a 10 out of 10. If you want to see the best fight in the history of Martial Arts, see the documentary.

This documentary is the best one I've seen in a long time. The views of both the homeless and the mentally ill is portrayed brilliantly. It's a heartbreaking reminder to the world of how important it is to support those that are living rough in our society. With regards to the homeless, the local authorities and public health should do everything they can to give them the help and support they need. Another documentary about the mentally ill and the vulnerable in our society is also great to see, with regards to mental health issues. It's the way in which the mentally ill are treated by the general population and in particular the NHS that really makes me angry. Hopefully, this documentary will give some light to the most unfortunate people in our society who are suffering from mental health problems. The only criticism I have of the documentary is the scene of violence towards the mentally ill homeless people. It's a little bit unnecessary and shows what I call a lot of the problem, where people think that their a problem that can be solved through violence. This really makes me feel angry and angry that so many people, who are out there, have a problem with mental health issues. I hope the number of mentally ill homeless people that end up being homeless will not be the outcome of this film.

I am going to start off by saying this is not a movie, it is a story. I am very thankful that i have been given the opportunity to share this movie with you. I hope you enjoy it as much as i did. We all know that the movie wasn't meant to be a documentary or a review, but more of a tribute to one of the greatest fighters of all time. That fighter was Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. and he truly lived up to his name. He was the man to beat and he did. The movie is a tribute to the man, and if you love boxing, you should check this movie out.

For me, this film was the most shocking film I have ever seen. I had been looking forward to seeing this film for a while, as it's a favourite of mine, but I had to see it again. I was amazed at how much I had already forgotten about this film, and how much I would have liked to remember it for the long term. My main motivation for watching this film was to see how it would look on a big screen, and I was not disappointed. The cinematography, lighting, and audio are all top notch. I had thought that the director would have tried to make a drama, but it really wasn't at all. He just wanted to make a film that was inspirational, and it was. I highly recommend this film to anyone, especially to anyone who has forgotten about it. It really is a must-see for anyone who has a great amount of respect for the human spirit, and the dangers that we face. It is a very important film to be watching. For those who are not familiar with the film, this is a documentary about the rise of an Indian boxing champion, by the name of Vikram Gokhale, and his rise to the top of the sport. The film was released in 2002, and is a very long film, that ran for almost three hours. It's not the best documentary I have ever seen, and it's not one of the best films I have ever seen. But I loved it, and I think it is an important film to be watched by anyone who has any respect for the human spirit.

The Cage Fighter is a gripping documentary about the struggles of a boxer. The film shows us what happens behind the scenes as the fighter fights for a guaranteed contract. The film has the characteristic of being extremely well made, with very good acting and a solid script. The film goes well with the story of what happens in the ring, the stage is set as the fighter prepares for his fight, and the film can tell the story with a great amount of emotion. The Cage Fighter is definitely an interesting film, because it's very well made, and the film tells a story that people should watch. I would definitely recommend this film to anyone who is interested in boxing, because the film is very interesting.

This documentary, "The Cage Fighter", is one of the best documentaries I've seen, and I've seen a lot of documentaries. The first hour is, as I said, extremely interesting and informative, and the second hour is, as the title suggests, very fascinating. It's a story about one man, who was once a boxer, but lost all his teeth when he was 7 years old, and he has lived a life of absolute loneliness ever since. He's got a drug addiction, a bizarre obsession with razor blades, and is pretty much totally unmotivated. So when his fighting days are over, he decides to fight the 100 times again. He ends up losing every time, but every time he fights, he sees something new in his life. I don't want to spoil the ending for anyone, but it's a story that would make you laugh, cry, and occasionally walk out of the theater smiling. And as far as documentaries go, this one is among the best I've seen. I'm not saying that it's a masterpiece, or even a very good film. It's just a great documentary that should be watched. I gave it an 8, simply because there are parts of it that are slow and it doesn't seem to go anywhere very quickly. But I think the film-makers did a very good job of building the story, and it's a very good story overall. I think it's a great movie, and I hope to see more films like this one. You should definitely watch it.

This movie was quite shocking to me. I was an Air Force SFC and got to fly in the Vietnam War. So, I am not exactly sure what is being said by the people in this movie. A lot of the stuff about the war is definitely inaccurate. And, it was about a SFC who was actually fighting in a Vietnam war. But, I have to say that this movie really touched my heart. You will either hate or love this movie. I personally found the movie quite touching. I personally am a fan of the O'Malley family and I think that they did a great job portraying their family in the movie. I think that they portrayed the O'Malley family as a loving family, who is very proud of their family and is proud of the sacrifices their family made for them during the war. It is very difficult to say how this movie affected me. I think that it was very touching. This movie is worth seeing. I would recommend that you see this movie if you have not already. I think that this movie should be seen by everybody.

I've been waiting a long time for this film to come out and I am glad it finally did. Though it seems that the film is rather hidden from most people, I assure you that the film is well worth seeing and really has a lot to say about the importance of this sport and the unsung heroes who make this sport what it is. The film is over 3 hours long, so the time you spend watching it will be worth it. It is amazing that this film can be so well received, and it shows a lot of people care about this sport, and if that is true, then it is a real tragedy that no film has ever been made about the lives and deaths of these brave people. This film is really the truth, and there is no alternative. It is well worth the time to see this film, and I strongly urge everyone to see it. I would like to say a few words in defense of the people in the film, and I want to know if they are still alive, so I can thank them for their courage, sacrifice, and very important sacrifices. For more of my comments on all kinds of documentaries, please visit my website. If you liked this film, please help me out by voting on other reviews! It helps! Thank you!

I loved this movie. It is amazing how a documentary can show you so much and still be entertaining. This documentary has so much hidden that you have to pay attention to to understand it. I can not explain how much I loved it. The acting is incredible and amazing. Some of the clips are incredible. But it doesn't stop there. I am going to try to post the documentary as soon as possible so that people can see it. Thank you for reading. -Angela

What a movie. I was only able to view the preview on HBO. I was not allowed to go and see it in theaters. I have been looking forward to this movie for a long time and was not disappointed. The cinematography was breathtaking. The fight sequences were almost perfect. This movie was just amazing. It was as if they were really putting the effort into this movie. I just want to say that if you want to see a movie that is only made for entertainment, this is not the one. I would recommend this to any person that is just looking for a good movie to watch with your friends and to do nothing more than just relax and have fun. I will definitely be going to see the movie again. It is definitely worth the price of admission. I will also be recommending it to all my friends.

This documentary is the most well done documentary I have ever seen. It covers everything from the boxing promoter and trainer and the fighting history of Muhammad Ali and many other boxers. It's a very sad story, but it is inspiring. It also shows the problems of young people, including the growing problem of drug use and its effects. It also shows the relationship between the boxer and the promoter, who is to say the real promoter. There are many funny things, like the fight between Ali and Frazier. The people involved are extremely intelligent and articulate. The documentary was produced very well. I watched it several times and was never bored. It is a must-see documentary for every boxing fan.

After several years of watching documentaries I found this documentary incredibly insightful and inspiring. I am not a fan of films and when I came to watch this, I was highly impressed with the overall quality of the film. The film focuses on two men and how one would like to live his life. The first is going to the gym and trying to improve his cardio. The second is going to fight camp with the hope of becoming a professional fighter. After each day in the gym, I could sense how they were thinking to themselves, 'when is it going to be my time to be an MMA fighter?' The film also tells you that you shouldn't listen to the way that other people think about fighting and focus on making your own decision about what your way to go. To me, this film is a must watch.

This is not your average documentary, or movie. This movie is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. I can honestly say that this is an important, powerful movie that is packed with information and action. This movie is not for everyone. Many people will never understand or appreciate this movie because it is very realistic. There is no red flags here. This is not a political movie. There are no pro-Bush comments in this movie. This movie is one that everyone should watch. We are all here to make the world a better place. This movie is one that needs to be watched. I don't know what I would have done if I didn't go to see this movie. This is a movie that is powerful enough to change lives and help people. This is a movie that will make you think and make you think a lot about what is really important in this world. This movie is an amazing movie that will get a lot of positive comments. So go out and watch this movie. I highly recommend this movie.

If you like boxing, this movie is for you! And if you don't like boxing, this movie is for you too. As I said before, the movie is great, with great fights and amazing footage. It makes you understand how tough the life of a boxing trainer is. In the movie there is a documentary on The Cage Fighter, so you get to know what they are going through. The story is good, but it is different, and I think it's good for kids. If you are like me, you won't get bored and want to watch it again and again. When you see The Cage Fighter, you know what you are getting into, but you also get to see what it's like to be a professional boxer. Overall, the movie is great, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to watch it. 10/10. Great movie!

This is a really good movie. I know there are those who complain about its length, but it is really a long movie. I've seen some of the bare bones information on wikipedia but there are also many more people who could have been interviewed and added to the movie. This documentary is great and shows us the full scope of the sport of cage fighting and how it is done today. It shows the poverty and the difficulties, and the beautiful things that are still to be found in this country and people are willing to make sacrifices to get a decent life and achieve greatness. The people that gave up everything and were willing to put their lives on the line and go to far away countries just to fight like in these movies. For the record, I am not one of those fighters. In fact, I fight because it was the only way I could make ends meet. When I was young I thought it was because I was a natural fighter, but after years of not fighting, I started to get very discouraged and decided to quit. But I found my passion again when I got to know about the cage fighting and started to become an "official" fighter. My journey ended up being a great example to others like me, to get a better life and to make it out of poverty. I highly recommend this documentary to everyone. We need more and better documentaries like this. I hope that in the future more people will see this movie and learn about the sport of cage fighting. The people that give up everything and make sacrifices and make a good life for themselves to achieve a good quality of life. The poor, the struggling, the unemployed, and the underprivileged. These are real people and we should learn from them and show them the dignity of life and the obstacles that they had to overcome. "Courage in a cage is a quality of fighting which comes from a real person with a true will to win." My life is full of struggles but the only thing I know how to do is fight!

Out of all the documentaries out there, I believe this is the best documentary I have ever seen on a topic that is somewhat ignored by the general public. The story is great, the acting is superb, the acting is superb. I mean the producers, the actors, the director, the crew and all of them deserve a big ol' ovation for their performance. I am surprised this movie hasn't been nominated for an academy award. The characters are very real, and each character has his own arc. You care about each of them. What I love about this movie is the amount of stories told in this documentary. This movie is not just about fighting. This movie is about being a fighter, and being a fighter means thinking outside the box, having a plan, and being a fighter means winning, and winning means getting out alive. I recommend this movie to everyone, not just fighters, but everyone. They deserve an Oscar for Best Documentary.

Anyone who has ever started a web-site in school knows how important it is to "sell your identity" and use your persona to get the people around you to like you. It is the lifeblood of a web-site or company. After you sell your persona, no more is required. This documentary brings you to the places that you might not have been to and lets you see what the other 99% have been through. These are people who know how to live life. While I have been to "the places" to which they belong, I have not known what it's like to be homeless. The street people that they interview all do a great job of shining the light on the lives of these folks and giving them perspective. The city of Los Angeles certainly deserves a lot of credit for doing a lot of this work, especially because so many people are "getting on in years". It is a worthwhile piece of work and it deserves to be seen by everyone.

I was really surprised and disturbed by the brutality of the "army of Las Vegas". A business man using his control of a lot of credit cards and defrauding the users of credit cards to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars was a shocking thing to see and witness. I think the things that the armed forces are doing are really disgusting. I really have no idea how these people can be trusted with weapons. I think the whole point of this documentary is to put on the table what our military is doing. I really hope that we don't have to watch and see this kind of behavior from our armed forces.

This is an awesome movie! It gives you the message of how you can fight on the ground, against the human mind and brain. This is an amazing movie that makes you think. It gives you the idea that you can fight back and live your life, no matter what your opponent is. It has one of the best quotes of the year, "I am human. And I will fight. And I will win." It gives you the message of the last decades of man's evolution. It gives you the idea that you can live in this world and use your intelligence to fight against it. This is the message that we should take and live our lives. And it's a message that most people need to hear.

I've never been a fan of Mick Lynch, but I think that I've seen all his movies. They're all pretty good, but I haven't seen his last one. I was going to watch this one because of the great reviews and because it's his last movie. I was right! It's a great movie. The acting is superb, the cinematography is great, and the story is good. I don't know why people are talking about it not being what it's supposed to be. This is the movie that David Fincher and Tim Burton should have done together. I hope that David Fincher makes a movie like this one. I think that he's an excellent director, and I think that his movies are so much better than everyone else's. I think that this movie is very underrated. I think that this is the best movie that I have seen so far. I hope that people are going to see it, and that it becomes a success like it has for David Fincher. Thank you Mick Lynch!

Very great documentary. I am not a MMA fighter. I do not know much about the sport. I do know that the sport is violent and that fights are highly illegal. I was very surprised to learn that there were only three fights in the history of the sport. That is a good thing. I do not think that it is a sport at all. I do think that it is just a sport. It is a form of combat which is much more dangerous than a boxing match. In the world of boxing, there is a very big difference between violence and entertainment. In the world of martial arts, there is a very big difference between violence and entertainment. This is what this documentary shows us. It is a very good documentary and I would recommend it to everyone.

I had heard about this documentary on the web for years and decided to watch it myself. I didn't expect the documentary to be this good. This is a MUST see documentary for every martial artist who knows how important it is to train and fight for a living. This documentary will touch you in ways that you never thought possible. Some of the martial arts martial artists in this documentary speak about how they became what they are today, how they are now better, and how they plan on becoming better. This documentary will touch you, but it will also make you think. This documentary is a must see. I give it an 8 out of 10.

I don't know where to begin. I watched this documentary because of the great guy that was a fighter in the cage fighting a guy that was a wrestler. I'm a huge wrestling fan so that was awesome. I had the chance to see that guy from a young age, and I had the opportunity to see him as a big wrestler himself. I'm a huge wrestling fan so this documentary was extremely important to me. I feel like I could relate to all of the events, and I felt like this guy's life was really similar to my own, and so many things in this documentary made me want to go see this guy's life, and I hope to see him live a full and happy life. This is one of the most inspirational documentaries I've ever seen, it made me feel like this guy is a legend and he deserves more respect. Thank you to the documentary maker, he really put his heart and soul into this documentary and I hope to see him live a full and happy life. A+

Very Good documentary. The whole thing is a bit hard to digest. You have to take it at face value. How the fights were staged, how the fighters were made, how the ring was set up, etc. But overall, this is a very worthwhile documentary. In particular, it's worth watching for those of us who have been boxing for a while, and who have a vested interest in the sport. The DVD is good, with the bonus feature "Training" on the inside. Also, you get a nice article by a man who was a professional boxer at the time the documentary was made, and he is now retired. Overall, the documentary is a bit hard to digest, but the documentary is well worth watching. Recommended.

The Cage Fighter is a documentary that is a look into the life of Mikey Wood, the founder of Cage Fighting in Long Beach California. Mikey has been an avid fan of the sport since he was a child and made his first Cage Fighting tournament out of a collection of cardboard boxes, made for the local McDonald's. As the years went on he became more of a promoter and as a result has become one of the best Cage Fighting promoters around. He now has over 5,000 fighters in their hands and is now fighting in Cage Fighting tournaments throughout the United States. He is in the top 15 fighters in the world in terms of rankings. But Mikey has come a long way since those early days. He has become a well known figure in the sport of Cage Fighting. It was only a matter of time before someone would take on the challenges that were put on him. Today, Cage Fighting is the biggest and most successful tournament in the world and has become a very popular sport that is taking place across the world. I believe that the documentary is a great way to start off the experience and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great documentary about one of the most important and beautiful things that happens to us in life: the sport of Cage Fighting. Recommended.

The Cage Fighter is a look into the life of a man in the cage fighting his entire life. This documentary is actually quite interesting, as it gives you a new view of the Cage Fighting world. The documentary is basically a character study of the character "Cage Fighter" Franklyn Witherspoon. He's an aging fighter who is very passionate about his sport, and has become so successful that he has his own gym, which is now hosting very high-level events. Witherspoon's life has a lot of ups and downs, but he has a lot of passion for what he does. He is the life of the party, and the one who is always upbeat, always in a good mood. He is a very, very enthusiastic guy. So when you watch the film, you really get a lot of insight into the "Cage Fighter." However, it is an interesting character study that really isn't one of those films where you really understand the person, or know why this person is the way he is. Franklyn Witherspoon is quite interesting, because he is a very unique character. He's a very different character from most of the fighters in the film, and that is why I think it's a good film. It gives you a lot of insight into the Cage Fighter, but it's still not a complete story about the Cage Fighter. It has a few scenes that are pretty boring, but they are very brief. In the end, it's still a very interesting film. The documentary also gives you insight into the background of Cage Fighter, and the things that make him so passionate about what he does. In addition to that, it gives you the perspective of what it would be like to fight professionally. It doesn't really cover that much, but it's still a great documentary. The film was really well done, and I would recommend this film to anyone.

Over the years there has been a flurry of films about the Vietnam war and its impact on young people. Some of these films have been good. Others have been very bad. The Cage Fighter has been the most successful. That's no surprise considering it was written and directed by Dean Haspel. It is a real eye-opener, as the great John Wayne himself was trying to do when he played the part of Buddy Love in this film. This is a film you will either love or hate. I personally thought the film was very good and a must see. It is difficult to understand why this film is getting such negative reviews. This film is very educational, that's what I thought. It is the best of its kind. There are also many images that are extremely important. It is such a shame that this film was so poorly received. I do not think it is a good film. It is not a great film, but it is certainly a film that is worth watching.

I loved the movie. The movie tells a true story of a man who lived his life by his fists and saved many people. The film shows his passion,his love for boxing,his passion to help others and his passion to fight in the ring. The movie also shows the passion of his family members and the life of his children. The movie has one of the best boxing sequences I have ever seen. The story is told well and the emotions the characters feel are shown very well. I thought the story and the characters were well told and I thought the story was strong. My only problem was the ending of the movie. I think that the film should have ended at least with a good boxing match and maybe at least one more scene after the end of the movie. It was an emotional scene but it could have been done without leaving out the boxing scene. Overall I think that the movie is well worth watching. I think that the movie shows how the man lived his life and how his passion for boxing. I hope that the movie will come out on DVD and be the best movie of the year.

Robert Marzo's documentary film "The Cage Fighter" is definitely a powerful one. Aged around the time he made it, he went to fight in the prison-related film, "The Wager", which is probably the one most people will know him from. It's about a prison escapee who fought with a medieval-type knight in a fight called "The Cage Fighter", a highly, highly dangerous combat style with no weapon and only kicks and punches. In the cage, a 10-year-old kid fights for his life, gets shot, and escapes from the prison, where he's about to be sentenced to a 20 years to life prison. This is the first documentary I've ever seen on the subject, and I think that it's one of the best I've seen so far. He's got the footage and interviews, and he's also managed to do the work of going through the prison and going to the fight. It's an extremely tough job, but Marzo managed to do it. He interviewed all the fighters and people in the film, as well as trying to get permission from the prison to film them in the fights. I think the filming in prison was very realistic. The camp used for prisoners and escapees was a big problem with the system at the time. They had a big problem with people escaping, and it was easy to get people to talk. There's a lot of fighting in the film, and it gets a bit violent at times, but it's well-done. I recommend this film.

I am surprised that anyone could rate this movie lower than a 9. The Cage Fighter was a great story, and it's a shame that people who haven't seen it have to suffer through the sub par acting, the stupid special effects and the way in which it is shot. I could go on for a while about how the story is done, how the actors are made, but I'm not going to spoil it. I recommend this movie to anyone who has the opportunity to see it, even if you don't really care about the subject matter.

The Cage Fighter is a documentary that I watched, about a man named Jeff Hardy. Jeff Hardy is a professional Cage Fighter, who was known for his hard hitting style, which included several violent attacks, which he used to his advantage, to get his opponent out of the ring. Jeff Hardy was a fighter from Texas, but when he was in the ring, he had a soft heart towards his opponent. He had a rough upbringing, and had to go through a lot of struggles. The Cage Fighter, who is known as Jeff Hardy, says that he is a fighter who had to make his dreams come true. He says that his dream was to be a professional fighter. Jeff Hardy, was really a good person. He had a girlfriend, who was pregnant, but he couldn't bear to be separated from her. He was like a father figure to her. He was really a good person. He had to go through a lot of pain and agony to make his dreams come true. This movie, has a lot of good things in it, which you can tell, from the beginning to the end. The film is a very good documentary, which tells about a man who had to face his mother's death, and his mother's harsh words towards him. This film has a lot of good things in it, and I would recommend it to anyone who has a love for a good story, and a good documentary.

I believe this is the best documentary about the real life fighter that has ever been made. The life of a fighter is one that is hard to live and one that you don't want to be in. This documentary takes the viewer through the grueling training and fighting of a fighter, the intense feelings of a fighter, and the honest view of a fighter who has achieved his dreams. The acting of the fighter is excellent, from the fighter himself to the coach that works with him. The boxing is exciting and the fight scenes are fantastic. The music is amazing and the background music is well used. The storyline is well put together and the story is told in an easy to understand way. This is the best documentary about the life of a fighter ever made and I hope that more people will learn about the real life fighter and the world of professional boxing.

This is the most entertaining and fascinating documentary I've ever seen. It delves into the life and death of Charles Bronson, who was a notoriously tough guy, and of course had a beautiful wife. The documentary was made for HBO, and the archival footage is not available on any online video site, so the only way to see the documentary is to get it, and then pay for it. This documentary is awesome, and will make you want to watch it again and again. The documentary is just as compelling as the biography. There is a lot of great archival footage, and it goes into a lot of the details about Charles Bronson's life. It's not like you see him in the movie, he's just a guy in the documentary. I can't recommend this documentary enough. It's an awesome documentary.

I first saw this film when I was 12 and was moved to tears. I was disturbed by the film because I thought it was telling a story about a girl that was raped, murdered and had to live with that trauma for the rest of her life. The film shows the woman's case, as well as her life after the assault, and what she's been through. The documentary shows all sides of the story, and it shows the woman and the rapist, and what her life has been like. It's a powerful film, that is both disturbing and thought provoking. I recommend seeing it if you want to know what it's like to be a rape victim, or if you want to know more about the woman.

I agree with all of the reviews I've read about this film. I did not think the movie would be as good as it was. I thought the directors attempt to show the gravity of the fight in this film was well done. It was actually about how the fight affects our mind and body. And how there is no way we could ever do the same thing as someone else. If you are a fighter or are at all interested in fighting, this film will change your life. I can't wait for the DVD release of this film.

I just wanted to comment on this film. It is by far one of the best documentaries i have ever seen. The director, Ken Burns, has taken a subject which has been such a key part of American History and has given us a very clear and valuable view of what was taking place and what led to the revolution and revolution in the first place. I really enjoyed this film and would highly recommend it. If you want to know what the war was like on the other side of the Atlantic or what happened in the beginning of the Civil War, this is a good film to view. You will be getting information that you have missed on TV, radio, and newspapers. You will also learn a great deal about the British and Irish people who suffered a great deal in those early years of the 20th Century. The director did a fantastic job with the filming, editing, and music. The film is very well made and the music is great. I think that this film is a very important one for all Americans to see.

This is a great documentary about the life of the Cage Fighter, Craig Alderton. If you like boxing or combat sports you will definitely love this documentary. The only reason it didn't get more recognition than it did was because it was written by a woman. Craig's life and career are not my thing but the documentary is amazing and everything about the film is great. The most incredible part of the documentary is how Alderton's life is a movie and he is in the same room as the director. The only things that I really disliked about the documentary is that the title is a little to hard to pronounce and that they had to show a lot of things in the trailer. Overall, I highly recommend this documentary because it is just really cool. I would definitely recommend watching this movie and you will be thoroughly entertained. 8/10

Having lost his wife in an auto accident, he feels nothing except frustration and anger. One night, he stumbles upon a boxing ring. While on the ropes, he sees a man punching a woman in the head with the ferocity of a battering ram. What drives him to fight back? This is the first film I ever saw about Muhammad Ali. I read a review by a fellow boxing enthusiast that said that boxing had taken a back seat to psychology. To him, Ali was a psycho-killer. I have to agree. The fight scenes, however, are fascinating, with Ali doing his own fighting, calling up the courage to do so. Sometimes he is on the ropes, but when he is on his feet he is unbeatable. The director focuses more on the psychology of Ali than the physical fighting. This is a good thing. We see how Ali grapples, fights, and rallies to the sound of rock music. One of the great things about Ali is that he did not fight out of love for his country or ideology. He fought out of a natural hatred of the Communist regime in Vietnam. He didn't care about the fact that he was labeled a "communist." As for the rock music, it was good. I will admit that I am an archivist, but I can never listen to "ROCK AND ROLL" the same way again. This is a great film for any boxing fan.

I've never been a huge fan of martial arts films. The only one I've ever seen was the first one in the "Rocky" trilogy, which I saw the first time when I was about ten years old. I'd rather watch a kung-fu movie like "The Rock" or "Dirty Dancing" for twenty minutes than watch a movie like "The Cage Fighter", and I can only say that this movie is awesome. The most important thing in martial arts movies is to know the storyline and the characters' backstories. The Cage Fighter is one of the most well-done movies that I have ever seen. It tells a story that will be familiar to everyone, and will give you the chance to see a lot of martial arts action. If you're a martial arts fan and have never seen this movie, go and watch it. It will be a great recommendation.

This documentary is based on a true story, and it focuses on the life of a boxer (who lost his boxer's license to go after the mob), and the life and career of a fighter who is already a trainer. I think that it is a great documentary because it brings the world of boxing and its fights to the viewer. The life and careers of both fighters is well portrayed, and I would like to see more documentaries on the subject. If you want to know more about boxing, check out my other reviews on The Fight Club, Boxing Isn't Broken, and Fight Club: Evolution.

It is not easy to understand the feelings of a boxer because he is not the one you see on TV. To know the importance of these things is to know the struggles of these people. I would love to see the fight with one of the world champions, one of the big boxers. I mean, the guy who can fight for years, years with the same boxing belt. If you are into boxing, or into the fighting, or something like that, I would recommend this documentary to you. The key to understand the other side is understanding the man behind the world. I would have loved to have seen a lot of boxing footage, but we had to wait until the DVD. A little bit of the Muhammad Ali story would have been amazing. I would have loved to have seen the amazing story behind "The Cage" from the boxer's point of view.

By far, the most uncomfortable and appalling thing about this documentary is that no one on either side of the barricade would even consider such a thing, let alone actually defend the wall of death. These young men are soldiers who have sacrificed the last 4 years of their lives to defend their land and the liberties it has allowed them to have. If they didn't, why did they make it to this point? This is a powerful film that should not be missed by any serious student of the Vietnam War. I highly recommend it.

This documentary examines the life of the many high-profile fighters who have challenged the old, sanitized code of fighting, often at great personal risk to themselves. A bit of background and historical context is supplied, along with several brief comments by the fighters. Not a dull moment and definitely worth watching. The majority of the fighters seem to have good values. I loved the quick, humorous, and non-biased commentary. This documentary is worth watching and thinking about. Not just because the fighters are celebrities but because they have the chance to show what they do for a living and why they do what they do.

In this film, 'The Cage Fighter' (a title I learned from the cast and crew after the film's production), we get the opportunity to see the trailer and trailers for several movies, including, but not limited to, 'Desperation,' 'BloodRayne:The Third Reich,' and 'Ready Player One.' 'The Cage Fighter' is one of those films that was released way before the trailers were made available and a limited audience is invited to see it. I'm not a huge fan of the trailers and the trailers were released before the films were actually released in theaters. 'The Cage Fighter' is a very interesting film. It tells the story of the fighter Michael Sala (played by Peter Gould) who just couldn't go home, he couldn't get out of jail, and the fights that he won and lost in prison just didn't matter to him. The story of his life and his fight against the system is told in the form of a very short film by the same name. 'The Cage Fighter' is really a terrific short film, and it tells the story of a man who never thought he would walk away from prison, but he does, and we get to see the real Michael Sala and his journey to get home. A few minutes into the film we see the trailer for 'Desperation' which is set in Paris, France. The trailers made it clear that this was a post apocalyptic future, the main character is Michael, a man who is going to be an ex-con, or ex-con-with-a-family, depending on the setting. 'Desperation' is the worst film Michael has ever seen in his life. There is no point of view in this film. There are no personal moments. Michael is told to do some things in the movie, but we never see him doing it, we only hear his head getting in the way. The trailer for 'Desperation' is very very confusing because of the fact that Michael isn't even in the movie at all. It's actually the most confusing trailer I have ever seen because of the way that it is split in two different films. The first half of the film, the one that Michael is in, is a short documentary-style film where he meets a man, who is just like him. Michael is trying to figure out what he is supposed to do in his life, and his goals. The second half of the film is a short film about Michael, just the three of them, which consists of one of his fights with a new opponent. The film has a very interesting ending, the last fifteen seconds are the only scene that is cut out of the film. It's the only part of the film that the entire audience was left out of. 'The Cage

Well I just finished watching this documentary on Netflix and I have to say I am impressed with how the man portrays the cages fight in his life. It's not his best documentary, but it's good. It does try to be funny sometimes and some of the fights are pretty graphic (I'm not a big fan of the cages fights). The actor is actually pretty good at portraying the fights. This documentary shows the lives of Cage fighters, and the places they live and the conflicts they have with their families. I really liked the documentary, it's a great look at the lives of the cage fighters, and they are just like real fighters. I also really liked the way they were filming the fights. They don't show the actual fight, but they show the transition from the cage to the cage to the cage and back. It's pretty cool and it's actually something different than other documentaries. Overall, I really recommend this documentary, it's pretty good.

Not the best docu-drama, but still interesting for the most part. But you could do much worse. But it doesn't matter, because the subject is still important and the characters aren't always what they appear to be. A film about a fighter that wasn't very popular and it's pretty much all that you want from this genre.

This documentary film presents an insightful view of the extreme conditions of training in combat sports like UFC (UFC), as well as the large amount of money they make. With the exception of the fights themselves, the way they are done in these games is not what we would consider normal fight sports. As a result, the viewer is forced to feel as if he or she is in a place he or she would never wish to be in. On top of that, all of the fighters are actually in good health, and all of them have a clear mission in their lives. They are training for their dream: to be UFC fighters. Some might argue that the conditions are unsafe or unfair, but this is only what the fighters want. It is to motivate themselves to keep going. It is to give them the confidence and motivation to continue on in their dream.

Great documentary about a man who made a choice in the 1980's that, at the time, was not as politically correct as today, was not to go against the established systems of American society and was brave. As much as the film deals with the small-town girl's struggle, it does so in a way that is sensitive, but not overtly so. By the way, the lead character is named 'Winslow'. What's more, as the film ends with the tears of a father, you know the film is not going to end with a happy end. The film is brilliant, both in its music and in the way it is made. It looks at the level of violence and misogyny in society today. This film is a beautiful piece of work. Although the film is hard to watch at times, this film is a must for everyone, regardless of what your political views are.

It's not a documentary, but it's an awesome movie about the origins of MMA in New York and how it all began. I'm not a big fan of MMA, but I loved this movie. You get to see the early history of MMA and it is very interesting. We also get to see a lot of footage of the early days of the sport, including Royce Gracie, Hulk Hogan, Ralek Gracie, and "King" Moosic. The real highlight of the documentary is the interviews with many people in the sport and how they describe their childhood. We also get to see the early beginnings of the sport and a very brief introduction to the New York area and its culture. The biggest thing that I really enjoyed about the movie was that it's very very short and very informative. It doesn't go very in depth about how the sport originated, but it does go into the history of it, some interesting people who are associated with the sport and what their jobs are, how the sport got started and the connections that the fighters had to some of the influential people in the sport and the social barriers that they faced growing up in the area. I recommend this movie to anybody who enjoys documentaries.

The Cage Fighter is a wonderful documentary, which is definitely worth the viewing. The story of the Russian boxer who turned professional and went on to win a world title. It was an interesting and rewarding story that will be a pleasure to see on screen. The documentary is visually brilliant, and the photography is first rate. It is extremely well done and the director does a great job. The cinematography is at times visually beautiful. The documentary itself is also spectacular, and it features interviews with many different people involved in the story. The interviews are generally good, but in some cases it felt a bit forced. That's not to say that they are a bad thing, just that I could have used some more editing on some parts. Overall, The Cage Fighter is a terrific documentary, with an excellent narrative and strong camera work.

Eddie Edwards has shown in the past how to do documentaries and this one is no exception. This one is great. The whole documentary is simply great. This documentary is about the Ultimate Fighting Championship, the world's premier mixed martial arts organization. This documentary includes interviews with many UFC fighters, which will give you the idea about what the UFC is about. The interviews are quite interesting and have some funny and interesting ones. The documentary is very well done. There are some parts of the documentary that are a little confusing but they are quickly explained. The interviews with the UFC fighters are well done and have a good amount of funny and interesting ones. The documentary contains footage of UFC events, from fights to interviews. In addition, the documentary contains interviews with UFC fighters, which give you the idea about what they are about. You get the idea about what the UFC is about. This documentary is great. I really recommend it.
