Phil Hoad Guardian It's a superficial treatment that favours messaging and easy momentum over any taxing grappling with emotional complexities. Rated: 2/5 Aug 31, 2021 Full Review Frank Swietek One Guy's Opinion This real-life underdog sports movie, set in the world of mixed martial arts, is...riddled with clichés, but features some decent performances and well-staged fight scenes. Rated: C Aug 12, 2021 Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee As is often the case with movies like this, the brief documentary clips during the closing credits are more compelling than all the preceding drama. Rated: C Aug 10, 2021 Full Review Mark Dujsik Mark Reviews Movies It follows the fighter's life and career in rushed, broad strokes... Rated: 1.5/4 Aug 6, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

J Marie Loved this movie. Inspirational, exciting, heartfelt and based on a real MMA fighter. Perfect for putting a smile On your face and love in your heart. I really melted at the relationship that this gorgeous guy had with his hard working mom. They only have each other throughout most of Nicks young life and it really is special to see the connection he has with his mom. They take care of each other while supporting each others dreams. They both were willing to sacrifice their dream to make that of the others come true. This was a really feel good refreshing movie much needed during this time of uncertainty and negativity taking place all over the world. I highly recommend everyone take your friends and family to see Notorious Nick, puts a smile on your face and the reminder you are capable of making any dream you have come true. Make a goal for yourself and dont stop until you make that goal! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/15/21 Full Review Diana V I think itvwas a very good inspirational movie. Good actors, good fighting. he can fight pretty good with only 1 arm, plus it is a true story. I really enjoyed the movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/09/24 Full Review mark g Pretty bad acting and predictable story. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/21/24 Full Review Audience Member This sports drama was really good. Cody Christian, Elizabeth Rohm, Kevin Pollak, Barry Livingston, and the rest of the cast did a fantastic job in this movie. This true story about a one-armed man named Nick Newell that worked very hard and never gave up on what he loved was inspirational, dramatic, and heartfelt. It's one of the greatest underdog stories ever. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. It's a must see. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Inspirational!!! My grandson has a similar arm and it is amazing accomplishment what Nick Newel has done. Broken down barriers.
