Action Drama Sport

5.7 / 10

An attempt to purchase beer becomes a nightmare for underage friends Chase, Jake and Dillon when Chase ends up dead, Jake gets shot in the back, and Dillon - a championship wrestler - goes to prison for manslaughter. Released after ten years, Dillon's greeted by Jake, who lines him up with a job and introduces him to the world of minor league MMA fighting. Due to Jake's outstanding gambling debt, Dillon agrees to three fights to cover it and literally save Jake's life but finds himself caught between gangsters, dirty cops, a shady promoter, a snide parole officer and Jake's disapproving sister.

I am the original writer of this film, I am from Philly. We actually pitched this movie to the tap out guys who took bits and pieces from the original plot of this script which got away from me and was originally much grittier and raw. They shot in New orleans b/c it's cheap. The fights in this PK are good, movie average to decent as it does flow well. Most ppl are haters based on the comments I'm reading. They robbed me of this script and credit and I'm still saying it's worth seeing, thank - @Tuesday, July 17, 2012 9:00 PM
