SPOILERS ARE LOCATED BELOW
Many people will disagree with my opinion on this film.
First off, many comments on this board mislead me into getting hold of it. The film is quite terrible. Sure, it has some good fighting scenes in it, and some pretty entertaining training scenes. But, the film just gets to be too chaotic. The plot is simple; the two friends become enemies over a woman. When they were youths, a girl that they had loved, was killed by street punks. They vowed to take up pro- boxing and to eventually avenge their friend. One friend takes the pro-boxing path and one takes a different stride. The film does address many good issues, but it is just bathed in distracting features. The music for one thing, was a joke. Many of the camera angles were poor, and many of the effects were just moronic. How many times can you watch a guy walk down the street through a rumble cam? And many things were repeated constantly; like the meat on the camera.
I found the film interesting, but not compelling.
This film related in now way to Fight Club.
