        The acting in this was decent, and the characters were somewhat believable. I don't think the idea of her being a boxer was taken far enough, however. The fights seemed unrealistic. Not bad..not great..

        Developed in the midst of the rise in female boxing, Michelle Rodriguez puts together a nice personal project.

        Michelle Rodriguez first film. Good to see a girl throw a punch every now and again.

        I think this was just an excuse for Michelle Rodriguez to show how bad-ass she is. Mission accomplished =p
