Embattled (2020)
7/10
Strong movie with a good plot
19 December 2020
From the start of this movie, you learn to hate Stephen Dorff, not as a person, but you at least hate his character. This is a good sign of good acting. From this point the movie takes you on a journey with a clear view of both the protagonist and antagonist, and it's a fun ride.

OK, OK, I'll go ahead and say it, Stephen Dorff's character feels a lot like Conner McGregor. That's not a bad thing, just a quaint similarity that helps carry the movie.

The MMA portion of the movie was great as it showed a lot of the behind the scenes of the possible social and dysfunctional side of a fighter.

The ending was good as well, but there were pieces I didn't understand. I'd watch this film again just for the sheer entertainment.
