Audience Member Really interesting look into the fascinating life of a fighter. For someone who grew up watching "Bloodsport" and Kung Fu movies, it's fascinating to get an up close look into the real lives of guys who actually fight for a living. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I got the DVD of this, really enjoyed it. Good perspective into the life and struggles of becoming an MMA fighter. Some of my favorite fighters have a lot of screen time too Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member This film gives an incredible insight into the lives of professional MMA fighters. Everything from their training, to the sacrifices they make to be able to do what they love for a living, to their victories and their personal stories, are very well documented and accurately depicted . I have been an MMA fan for quite some time now and it's always very rewarding toss see and hear about what got a professional fighter to that place and their aspirations for the future. After watching this documentary, you can't help but not gain respect for what they do and fight for every day. Really recommend it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Even for someone who doesn't follow MMA, this documentary proved to be entertaining and informative. They could not have picked two fighters more disparate than Shields and Beerbohm to follow. Their contrasting regimens and backgrounds were two different windows in the same house of MMA, and although it doesn't cover the entire spectrum of the sport, it represented the sport's unique culture and its affect on the fighters in a very honest way. The ending, not the happiest, but it was real, and relatable. A must-see for anyone who is a fan of MMA, but more importantly, to anyone who appreciates unrelenting dedication, passion, and hard-work. Does it pay off? As we learn in Fight Life, yes, but not always in money. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a fan of mixed martial arts (MMA) and hardly follow the sport, but I found this documentary fascinating and insightful. Both my brothers train in MMA styles at their gyms, but they do not fight competitively. After watching this documentary, I'm very glad of it. I also developed a greater appreciation for what MMA entails. Never saccharine or emotionally manipulative, the film presents an honest depiction of MMA fighters at different levels in the sport, their training, and some of their personal struggles. I found the personal reasons for the fighters' pursuit of the sport to be very compelling. Also provides information about the MMA culture, its increasing popularity, and its path to recognition as a sport. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Fight Life took me on an in-depth journey into the world of MMA. Watching what these guys in ALL levels, sacrifice and put themselves through is nothing short of inspiring. Love the way this director told these stories.
