Its ok… the highlight of the film was about halfway into it when they interviewed one of Casey’s female sparing partners. This girl is a MMA fighter and hot! She should have been the fighter profiled… Overall the did a decent job of putting in audience into the fight world. Female kickboxing is sooo slow, ugly, and boring it was really hard to watch the actual fight.
I give it a C+
