Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
krocheav Here is a movie that irresponsibly glamorises all the tragic ills that are currently costing societies around the globe billions of dollars in mental and physical health support for: deadly substance abuse, sexual diseases, inane violence etc. This movie works only as a denouement of every aspect of mainstream movie making - the writers, producers, directors, actors and distributors - everyone has something to be totally ashamed of. The reviews posted from those genuine audiences who handed over their money to see this - clearly state they came away wishing they had known better (that they had been cheated) - that's a terrible result for the entire industry and in the long run will eventually work against it. You cannot continually disappoint audiences and expect that they will support or respect you. This trash fest should never have progressed beyond the bad idea's dept. Made, distributed and presented by immoral movie handlers of below average intelligence - for a likewise audience. Australian Foxtel please note: This is R material, not MA with a simple I rating. Time to get it right and supply your subscribers with an intelligent and HONEST assessment of the material you're presenting. If you want our respect, you won't win it with wildly inaccurate ratings for shoddy, irresponsible material like this and others that you're filling the airwaves with of late. There was once a time (fortunately some still do) when companies had the courage to make an internal decision to forgo profiting from pollution but sadly, Foxtel seems not to be amongst them.
LorenBieg Fist Fight is exactly what I hoped for, over-the-top comedy about a ridiculous situation with plenty of one-liners. This type of film is the bread and butter of comedies. And it works well, despite what critics need to say about it. Forget about all that high-brow analysis and have some fun with this movie.Charlie Day's Andy Campbell is well-meaning, but he's a wuss in every conceivable way. Ice Cube plays the tough, intimidating "scared-straight" teacher at the school. Sparks break out between the two, and Ice Cube's Strickland (a nod to "Back To The Future?") turns out to be the character with the most surprises. Charlie Day is enjoyable as always as a ranting, stressed out English teacher who's way, WAY out of his depth with the fist fight and trying for most of the movie to get out of it. Rounding out the cast are the great Dean Norris (Breaking Bad), Christina Hendricks (Mad Men), the always funny Jillian Bell & Kumail Nanjiani, each of which are given plenty of funny. Tracey Morgan may fall the most flat, but his part doesn't give him much to do but complain and be the butt of a prank.The students are the real antagonist here, although it could be seen more as Campbell is his own antagonist. Either way, too much analysis gets in the way of enjoying big entertainment value, especially as the fight looms closer and closer. If you like the low budget, high-talent, low-brow comedy, Fist Fight should be on your watchlist!
FilmBuff1994 Fist Fight is a mediocre movie with a reasonably well developed plot and a good comedic cast. It is simple fun while it lasts, what really made the film worthwhile for me, overall, was Charlie Day. He has a terrific comedic presence and naturalness to himself that makes him a pleasure to watch. Day is also joined by some great improv comedic talent that includes Tracy Morgan, Jillian Bell and Kumail Nanjiani, who all shine in their scenes. However, it is a very by the numbers comedy that never does anything original or off the cuff. The movie plays things very safe and seems almost afraid to do something really out of the ordinary that would make us laugh more than just a little chuckle, it felt like a movie that was once a very original script, turned in to something formulaic and bland thanks to studio involvement. Ice Cube delivered quite a boring performance in this film, doing absolutely nothing we have never seen him do before, and failing to make some comedic changes, like he did in the Jump Street movies. Instead, he goes for a bland delivery of his dialogue that makes for an unsatisfactory viewing, as the film builds up to him punching Day in the face, a lackluster set up. Has it moments, but quite forgettable. If you are a big fan of any of this movie's comedic talents, then you might want to give it a watch, but Fish Fight is an unexceptional, mundane comedy that never surprised me. A school teacher is challenged to fight another teacher after unintentionally getting him fired. Best Performance: Charlie Day / Worst Performance: Ice Cube
zeeshanalih Highly suggest if you want a good laugh. The movie was funny and really good. It wasn't meant to be serious at all and I think that all the people crying about it are 60 year old single old farts who don't know what humour is. It's not meant to be realistic at all if it's a comedy movie for entertainment. It's not a damn documentary. Tired of all these "critics" who act as if only Oscae nominated movies that are inspiring and touch your heart can be considered good. This was a great watch.
