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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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'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!

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.
