Review of Bruised

Its horrible terribly BAD. Well the film is awful, with poor fight scenes, no heart, and no soul. And (you'll only get this if you watch the movie). The fight scene with Valentina was ridiculous. The opening scene was ridiculous, She jumping out of the cage mid fight. How was she dominating in BJJ? When was that established? We only see her kickbox training. No antagonist build up... absolutely nothing. It was so terrible . The plot is just bad. The little fight scenes is typical Hollywood mess . You can tell berry doesn't know how to throw a punch .The sub plot w the kid never goes anywhere.... It's just training montages over and over and over, This one however, is painfully the same. It was so cliche and just didn't have the authenticity that it needs to be believable. Bruised, it made me cringe a bit, as an mma fan it reminded me of Ronda Rousey's career in mma, even the staredown with Lady Killer looked like a staredown between Ronda and Miesha (look it up if you haven't seen their staredowns). I feel like this movie was a fantasy for Halle Berry where she wanted to be a part of those important moments in mma, and then she added the story with the son, lol. The main event fight scene, well, I know it's a movie, but it felt really choreaographed.
