It's been a few years since I saw this, and I don't remember that much about it other than to wonder why it was made in the first place. I used to teach fencing, but I have nothing bad to say about the fencing portions of this movie. I just wonder why it was made at all. I suppose it could have been about any competitive sport. As a drama it will not hold most people's attention, I suspect. And I adore most anything Eric Roberts is in. Better he should be chased by a killer taxi.
