Fightville Audience Reviews

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Dalbert Pringle Bam! Bam! Bam! WARNING! - If you are someone who simply cannot enjoy (even slightly) watching a man being royally pulverized by another, then "Fightville" certainly isn't gonna register as entertainment for you.But, on the other hand - If you wanna see the real thing here where a bunch of very dedicated young men (who seem to have a lot of inner-rage to vent) punch the living daylights outta each other (all in the name of glory with little or no monetary gain), then this well-produced documentary (from 2011) is certainly worth a view.Through interviews with MMA fighters, their trainers (and, yes, even opinions from concerned parents) - Fightville introduces the viewer to these feisty, pugilistic, young lads from Gladiator Academy (located in Lafayette, Louisiana) who travel around the State with promoter Gil Guillory in order to proudly demonstrate (to the ever-curious public) all there is to know about anger-management, one-on-one combat and the disciplined art of MMA fighting.
KIEZER SOZE I had just Watched DUSTIN POIRIER aka The Diamond vs CHAN SUNG JUNG aka The Korean Zombie .. Like a Week Before I seen FIGHTVILLE on Showtime So I Decided to Check it Out Because it was a Great Fight .. & I knew JUNG aka Korean Zombie was a Great Fighter & Warrior & Really The Only Asian Fighter I Liked But I Wanted to see more of POIRIER .. & I am Pretty sure he will be a FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMPION in THE UFC in The Next Two or so Years ... Homey been a Fighter since He Popped Out The VA-JAY-JAY .. Fighting for Real But for FUN as a Pre-Teen & Teenager Based on what his MOM said & Broke The Jaw of The OG of The Block who was 5 Years Older After he Beat ALL The other Kids his Age UP ... Because The OG said he hasn't fought him Yet (lol) Just Watched POIRIER vs BROOKINS 2 Nights ago & Dustin took a few Good Shots then Crumbled BROOKINS with his Own Shots & Than DARCE CHOKED him While he was on The Ground .. Dustin has a Good/Great Chin & he Fights to Finish aka Not a Safety First or Points Fighter aka The Most Entertaining Type of Fighter & in My Top 10 Favorite Fighters already .. The other Fighter ALBERT STAINBACK seemed Tough but he was Not Just about Fighting & The Competition .. He was about The Show aka A CLOCKWORK ORANGE Walk Out OUTFIT & Theme Song & The Attention & Adrenaline Rush .. He hasn't Fought since JUNE 2010 Based off of SHERDOG so I don't know what he is up to .. I thought it was Awesome & Hilarious that DUSTIN .. KOD .. a Fighter with The Nickname .. "The Sex Machine" for his Last Fight of The Documentary (lol) He looked like a Good Fighter & Legit But Lame A/S/S Nick Names Always Bug Me .. If he is The Sex Machine .. Dustin made Sure MISSIONARY was The Only Sex Position he could Perform that Night ... PAUSE ... Also (lol) @ TIM CREDEUR saying .. "Whats up MY BABY" .. After Dustin slept The Sex Machine .. It Sounded Kinda Lame but he was PROUD of his Student or Fighter
nicole cherico Fightville was such an excellent documentary and it gets you to see inside the life of a cage fighter. Cage fighters train day in and day out to be the best. The sport is not just a sport, but a way of life. They make unbelievable sacrifices that most people have a hard time doing. But in the end, when you have that win, it makes all the tears, sweat, beatings, and training all the more worth it. This movie did such a great job seeing the part of MMA that most people don't ever see. There's a lot more behind a pair of gloves and a clever nickname and more people need to realize this. This movie for sure gets a 10 out of 10.
P L Yes, cheesy as it sounds, I DID feel the fight in Fightville. I will not tell you too much because you should see it for yourself, but I loved experiencing the up close access that this documentary shows. I love that the documentary is presented in the words of the families, the promoters and most of all the fighters. You can't help but feel the pain and sweet in this documentary. Pretty intense and very real.There was a bit of culture shock for me in this documentary too. I can't say I knew what a grind the sport is for those "down in the trenches" looking for a shot. You'll know what I mean when you watch it.
