Review of The Circuit

The Circuit (2001)
1/10
Worse Than a Roundhouse Kick To The Face
8 April 2006
Warning: Spoilers
A shoddily directed and poorly written knockoff of pretty much every other fighting tournament movie-- except, as bad as other movies of this genre are, at least they pull off the formula. The training sequence, a staple of the "fighting tournament" B-movie, is a perfect microcosm of how the movie is as a whole; shabby, questionable in logic and technique, sparse in action and intelligence, heavy on clichés, and despite the possible enjoyment one could get from how bad it is, simply uninteresting. Many unnecessary scenes, absolutely terrible dialogue, and wafer-thin characters played by uninterested actors who stumble through half-improvised dialogue make this "movie" a complete waste of time.
