"Never Back Down!" is present day for "Wash on, wash off"

Rating: 9/10 (31 July 2008)

What makes Never Back Down one of the better movies of 2008 is the lack of the overused polished actors, actual emotions, and entertaining action.
This movie gets your adrenaline up and makes you wanna knock out a complete stranger. Sean Faris plays Jake Tyler, a rebellious teen who moves to Florida because of his little brother's tennis scholarship. His vicious past of violence attracts the local bad-ass Ryan, who specials in mixed martial arts. After a beating in front of the whole school, Jake trains with a legendary fighter in hopes to beat Ryan.
The acting is superb, and very enjoyable. Fair warning, don't drink an energy drink before watching.
