Warrior Movie Review




What was the movie about?
'Warrior' is a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) action/drama story about a dysfunctional family of  two brothers separated because of an alcoholic father played by Nick Nolte. The younger brother, 'Tommy Conlon' played by Tom Hardy returns home with ambitions to fight in the ring, but is haunted by his military past and his hatred for his older brother. The older brother, 'Brendan Conlon' played by Joel Edgerton was a former UFC fighter decides to return to the ring in hopes of earning money to support his family. Eventually both brothers climb to the top leading to a final showdown of hatred and love.

Why watch this Movie?
What I enjoyed most about this movie was the mixed martial arts fight scenes. They did a superb job of portraying the fighting and life style of an MMA fighter. The acting was also well done, piecing it all together to provide an enjoyable movie.

Was the movie worth seeing?
I am a big fan of action, dramas and mixed martial arts. To see it all in one movie and present it well was truly entertaining. Definitely worth watching!

I give Warrior 4/5 (4 - worth watching)
