Donalda V That's a wonderful movie about such a sincere, humble and strong from inside woman and her journey to the championship. Inspiring, motivational and touching documentary. I am more fan of MMA now because of Rose. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/01/23 Full Review Santa A Brilliant, inspiring and sensitive film! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Carlos N Real life story hits you with elation and sense of awe for Rose and her journey to becoming a UFC world champion. I loved the commentary and personality of her boyfriend and MMA partner Pat Barry who in the earliest days knew her career would need all his devotion. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Daiva N Get ready for a lot of emotions. "Thug Rose" evocatively captures the life of a fighter - the "struggle" with oneself, hard work, commitment and never give up attitude on and off the ring. Music is beautifully incorporated into the action. I loved it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Dustin B This film exposed a way different perspective of Rose than I had ever known about. Sure I have seen a couple of her fights, but it was such a treat to take a deeper dive into her mindset, routine, and really relatable fears of her preparedness to step into the ring. The film has a really nice blend of emotions and excitement and I experienced a new level of appreciation for what it takes to not only win the big fight, but the keep winning with physical and mental battles never stopping. More Rose content please! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Ricardas R Never give up! Proud to be Lithuanian. Great job from Marius&team and Rose!
