Many people may call Warrior a modern day Rocky. It’s not. The brilliance of Gavin O’Connor’s Mma drama is that it is a multi-layered story, dealing with the breakdown of family relationships. The story is about the turmoil between two brothers, Brendan (Joel Edgerton, upcoming The Great Gatsby) and Tommy (Tom Hardy, upcoming The Dark Knight Rises) and their relationship with their father Paddy (Nick Nolte, HBO’s Luck). The Mma is just the vehicle that pushes their tense relationship forward. Having said that, the Mma battles are just as brutal as any Mma match you’ve seen before. The creative team employed some of the best Mma trainers and athletes to deliver the truest Mma experience on the big screen. The Blu-ray release is just as fierce as the movie. O’Connor didn’t skimp out on giving viewers special features. Not only can the standalone »

Getty Tom Hardy (left) and Joel Edgerton at last night’s “Warrior” premiere.
The new movie “Warrior” is ridiculous. What I mean is, “Warrior” is that rare combination of feel-good movie fused with that down-and-dirty blood sport, Mma fighting, that one doesn’t find all that often in film – and pulls it off with an incredible level of beauty and grace. Last night, at the movie’s premiere in Los Angeles, stars Joel Edgerton and Tom Hardy decided to 86 the »

Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton star in Warrior, a movie by Gavin O'Connor getting strong reviews from critics and viewers alike. So far, on Rottentomatoes the film holds an 88% positive score, and why not? The film looks impressive and although people will compare it to Paramount Pictures' The Fighter as it involves two brothers struggling along, it shouldn't be. It should be seen as a different animal, showcasing talents of two upcoming stars and the strengths of veteran Nick Nolte. Also in the cast are Jennifer Morrison, Frank Grillo, Denzel Whitaker, Bryan Callen, Kevin Dunn, Maximiliano Hernandez, Sam Sheridan, Fernando Funan Chien and Jake McLaughlin. Gavin O'Connor, Anthony Tambakis and Cliff Dorfman wrote the script, from the story by Dorfman and O'Connor. Warrior opens September 9th via Lionsgate and follows an ex-Marine Tommy Conlon (Hardy) haunted by his tragic past, who returns home for the first time in fourteen »

Warrior starring Joel Edgerton and Tom Hardy gets a new TV spot which asks how far someone would go to protect what is theirs. This is one movie I am craving to watch on its September 9th debut. Featuring very talented actors in the lead, as well as a supporting cast of Frank Grillo, Denzel Whitaker, Bryan Callen, Kevin Dunn, Maximiliano Hernandez, Sam Sheridan, Fernando Funan Chien and Jake McLaughlin. The Lionsgate release directed by Gavin O'Connor (Miracle) follows two brothers face the fight of a lifetime – and the wreckage of their broken family – within the brutal, high-stakes world of Mixed Martial Arts (Mma) fighting. An ex-Marine haunted by a tragic past, Tommy Riordan returns to his hometown of Pittsburgh and enlists his father, a recovered alcoholic and his former coach, to train him for an Mma tournament awarding the biggest purse in the history of the sport.

Two brothers face the fight of a lifetime – and the wreckage of their broken family – within the brutal, high-stakes world of Mixed Martial Arts (Mma) fighting in Lionsgate’s action/drama, Warrior.

As Tommy blazes a violent path towards the title prize, his brother, Brendan, a former Mma fighter. »
