It talks about female empowerment in a sexist, cliche and tremendously boring story.
And this mainly because the lead actress, Malin Åkerman doesn't seem to be really interested in the role, and if your protagonist is unconvincing, the same

It tics all the boxes as per commanded by the deep state.
Most characters are gay (for no reason), marijuana is cool and good for you and police are bad.
Spoiler alert. The movie is not funny at all. I give it one Opoint because the chic is

I give it one Opoint because the chic is cute and a good actress.

I'm a big MMA fan. Even trained a little in it myself. So if any sports movie chooses to use it as its driving force over the usual suspects of boxing, football, and basketball then I'll be there every time.

So if any sports movie chooses to use it as its driving force over the usual suspects of boxing, football, and basketball then I'll be there every time. This, however, was not a fight of the night contender.

I enjoyed the actual fights and the training segments that lead up to the big final showdown with the protagonist's pugnacious rival, even if the plot felt unfinished as we never get to see any real growth in Åkerman's character up to that point. Something that naturally causes the light dramatic element to fall flat. The problem for me was simply everything else. See, Chick Fight is also trying to be a comedy. Unfortunately, every "joke" is a bit of pointless vulgarity, rather than genuinely clever raunch. So the laughter is practically nonexistent. It also doesn't help that the entire cast outside of Alec Baldwin deliver phoned in performances that make it clear they knew exactly how sloppy the script and bad the dialog was before signing on, and are only present for the paycheck.

As much as I appreciate seeing my favorite sport receive some representation in a film that isn't a documentary on an athlete's achievements, I'm left with a level of disappointment I haven't experienced with MMA since witnessing Adesanya vs. Romero. Especially since it's easy to see that had more time gone into ensuring there was a satisfying plot rather than a bunch of crappy vagina and gay jokes we could have had a top contender. When these ladies throw down it's actually kind of convincing. Sadly, this is the cinematic equivalent of an initially promising looking young prospect who showed up too overconfident, missed weight, and got knocked out in the first round.

I've read that this was expecting to parallel somehow The Fight Club. Is this a joke? This just another hardship overcoming romantic film that is more parallel to Karate Kid.

Fight Club is another genre. Where are those magazine critics instructed?

I expected a silly movie and this was about it. Pretty average, maybe giving too high rating but since managed to watch it I guess that's what it was

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To me (note when I say fight club I am talking about the Original.), it could be better (Like the first movie.) The first movie, the first movie is better, In every way, it shows a lot more good than evil. Fight club it self is more better, because it says "first rule of fight club is don't talk about fight club". And one scene in fight club, that says "The first rule is don't talk about fight club". Which then that turns into a whole new thing, They talk about the fight club, to get more members. Which to get more members = more chaos which = more destruction to the rich (the ending explains this: Tyler and Martha watch the world explode/city explode.) Then they have way more. power until, The real Tyler (there are 2 the invasion of Tyler, and the real Tyler.) The fake Tyler: has a high sex drive. Who is stronger than the whole fight-club.
The real Tyler: is stuck in a dead-end job while being apart of the fight-club.
So moral of the story:
Watch the original, not the remake it's dumb. If you wanna watch the movie, I'd wait until it's free.
