A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

I really enjoyed this movie. I put this movie on as something to fall asleep to but it turned out to be a really interesting movie. Unrivaled is a great movie. With lots of action and a great story line. I can't wait to see what movie Hector Echavarria comes out with next. The one thing that I do wish they had done in Unrivaled is add more information in regards to Ringo Duran's mother and what happened to her. They don't have much information about her and I think it would have made things a bit better to be able to know more information on the mother of one of the best fighters. Other then that I think Hector did an excellent job and think that he will continue to produce and write some of the best martial arts films that we will see for quite some time. Maybe he will also have the chance to act with some of the other famous martial arts actors?Each and everyone of Hector Echavarria's movies that I have seen so far as exceeded my expectations on all accounts.

This can't really be described as a movie, it's more a collection of music videos with terrible acting, fairly average fight scenes and stupid amounts of female nudity. The storyline is the standard underdog story and, although it's not very original, it could of made a half decent sports movie if the acting was better. The main thing which annoyed me was the terrible direction, apparently the director began in music videos and it really does show; heavy rock songs have to play out from start to finish even if it means six minutes of watching a naked woman gyrate. Don't get me wrong, I'm a teenage boy and I'm usually up for a bit of nudity but at least make it relevant to the storyline rather just trying to stretch the running time. The cinematography really ticked me off, in most films all the scenes are recognizably from the same movie, in this the look of the film is constantly changing and it doesn't work. One minute one minute you're watching a stylized fight scene, the next you're watching a brightly lit daylight scene with fast shaky cam action, where's the consistency?This film was obviously made on a small budget (it's often obvious the fighting's being filmed in a cage surrounded by an audience of 8 people) so why waste time and money doing 360 swivels round buildings etc... Don't even bother watching this, the fight fight scenes are less than average, if you want to see a good low-budget fighting movie watch "Blood and Bone"!

I watched this today with no expectations since I hadn't heard of it before. I wanted to like it because I like MMA and it had some fighters I like in it. Surprisingly the MMA fighters were better actors then the main character Ringo. The writing and cinematography were better then expected. I just wish Ringo was even remotely likable. The actor didn't show any emotion at any point during the movie. In an underdog movie you need an actor that people want to see win, but all I was hoping is he'd be killed during the final fight scene. If you're going to have nudity in a strip club scene why would it be in soft focus? What were you thinking?

I started watching this film wasn't expecting much from it but it was just surprisingly good! I especially love the music and editing especially the camera work, all the slow mo and "shaky-cam" weren't over done but rather put together in a graceful yet exciting manner, got to love a movie that can convey the heart of a fighter from the screen to its audience - and this is often rather difficult to pull off, prime example of such failure can be seen in movies like "fighting", for instance. I'm thoroughly surprised and impressed and would recommend it to anyone who like fight movies! Be warned though this movie does contain quite a bit of violence (obviously...) and a fair bit of nudity - and i'm definitely not complaining..AT ALL!
