bas is the man

Bas is the man, but this movie should not be promoted by the UFC. It will be horrible.

Wow a MMA move with make believe situations and a bunch of geeky actors…looks like a boaring film. I would rather pay for PPV than watch “Never Back Down”. That way you get great REAL fights and hot chick (ring girls).
Tito would have been perfect for this role.

fast and furious one tree hill mma= never back down= a disgrace to the sport

fast and the furious plus one tree hill plus mma= never back down= disgrace to the sport

This movie looks like a real turd-fest

it looks like step up 2 but instead of dancing they fight

i talked to a friend of mine and he as like: ” oh arnt you training for that mma stuff, theres this bad ass movie coming out lets go watch it”, mmmmm : NO!!! then proceeded to explain that he as a casual fan at best would go watch it because he doesnt know any better but, me hell no( it will be ridiculous).

You got to love Bas…..my favorite commentator of all time, as well as one of the greatest mixed martial artists…EVER!!!

Bas and Rampage together back in the PRIDE days used to crack me up!

I’m gonna check it out, just because you never know, it might surprise me and be good. plus i love going to the movies.

Ahahaha… you beat me to it. Every time I’ve been asked about this movie, I tell people that it’s going to be “The Fast and the Furious” of MMA. Only, instead of 16-year olds racing their mom’s Honda Civics it’s going to be throngs of jackasses in TapouT shirts “ULTIMATE fighting” behind the bleachers on the football field.

Whats the difference?lol just kidding. do you know what bothers me most about this movie? the fact that it is rich kids in high school fighting each other. and i have never seen any fighter do multiple back flips in a fight.”At lincoln high school you have to know how to fight, because rich kids like rob emerson may jump you for no reason.” This is the dumbest thing i have ever heard.never mind half these kids parents are lawyers(you dont beat up kids whos parents are lawyers and get away with it)

This movie looks awful. Just from the previews, and by what kind of movie it is, you can just know how the story will go. A new kid will move into a new town. He will fall in love with a girl, who has a boyfriend. The boyfriend will beat up the new kid. The new kid will start training mma to defend himself and his honor. He will then challenge the boyfriend to a fight once he is trained. The whole high school alumn will show up to the parking lot for the fight. The fight will start out with the new kid getting his butt kicked and the boyfriend might even do a couple of “dirty/illegal” moves to futher show that he is the villain. Then in a heroic turn of events, the new kid will come back and beat up the boyfriend to win the fight, the girl, and the respect of the kids in his new town.

LAME. I seen like 10 of those movies when I was like 12 years old.

That is exactly how the movie will go! My prediction…New kid by Gogo Plata in the 2nd round of the parking lot Brawl.

all it is, is a modern version of The Karate Kid. If you grew up watching those kinds of movies like i did, of course it isn’t going to interst you, in the same way that the Karate Kid didn’t interest your parents. everything goes in cycles. in the 80s everyone loved karate and karate tournaments so they made a movie about it. today its MMA. *shrug* i don’t see how it warrants the misplaced anger i’m seeing on this forum, but hey if you guys really need to be mad about something so stupid, more power to you i guess. i liked the karate kid and for the same reason i’ll watch this movie. i’ll just make sure i shut off my brain before it starts so i can enjoy it just like my dad had to do before he took me to see the karate kid.

They need to add a musical training montage to really complete this movie. Here, I’ll give everyone a great montage song to sing in their heads the rest of the day:

Try to be best/”Cause you’re only a man/And a man’s gotta learn to take it

Try to believe/Though the going gets rough/That you gotta hang tough to make it

History repeats itself/Try and you’ll succeed

Never doubt that you’re the one/And you can have your dreams!

You’re the best . . . Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the best . . . Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best . . . Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

I heart El Guapo

PW broke out the Karate Kid part 1 song! Much Props to PW for going old school on us! I actually used to have that song in my i-pod for trainingt purposes…. i erased it by accident…. That was a great 80’s song!

Fight till you drop, never stop until you reach the TOP, your the best around! I love that Crap!

I hear you kitsunex. I’m sure that once this movie makes its way to HBO/Cinemax/Stars that I’ll watch it at like 2 am.

I really liked your comparison of our parents having to sit through the karate kid, and having to turn your brain off before watching it.

bas is a cool dude, wonder if hes gonna back the movie up any

i’m gonna go see it in the theater.. chances are i’ll have to get good and baked beforehand though HAHA

Yeah this movie looks so typical it’s not even funny.

I like Bas but he better have been paid large sums of money to kiss this movie’s butt like he did.

you guys are crazy
this entire movie kept me on the edge of my seat, and had me thinking i was actually there
this movie had everything every single movie should have.
5/5 stars, for sure.

yo le dare una oportunidad a esta pelicula para poder criticarla, a simple vista se ve q es un intento fallido de crear una buen pelicula de amm, espero ver q sucedera y poder opinar…

It kinda resembles the karate kid but of a modern day movie “Never back down” would rank higher because its a all around better movie. Then again these guys brawl it out and beat the hell outta each other and have some pretty good mma skills in this movie.

i liked the movie it was a good change to see a young kid that did’nt drink or do drugs.they took a great sport and made a positive movie out of it.i mean it’s a movie.now days if i can get my 13yr old son to watch something productive instead of corny drugged out movies well i’m all for it.i think some of you people need a reality check.IT’S A MOVIE,as far as a disgraise to U F C why?that was about dedication priod.damn you all read to much into it.
