All the clichés ever thought of - and occasionally good fighting

Rating: 4/10 (26 December 2011)

First of all - this is mostly a drama flick. If you disregard the "MMA" part of the movie, it becomes a cliché drama with all the stereotypical family problem scenarios Hollywood has to offer.
Then, looking at the fighting - there clearly isn't very much MMA in it. The moves pulled by the two main protagonists often don't make much sense. A lot of energy wasted for very small damage. And when someone weighing 70-80kg lifts 120+ kilos worth of "panzer fighter" after a 20 second choke-clinch... Well lets just say its not a believable scenario.
I did like the actors performances though the plot was too cheesy.
So, disregarding the fighting - a 6/10 cliché flick. With fighting 4/10, because if you actually sit and think about what happens you can't agree with the way things go in Warrior.
