    This movie shows every side of girl: strong, determined, sexy, and most of all, able to kick ass!

    I loved this movie. It shows that Michelle Rodriquez is going to be a huge star. She is a beautiful and talented artist, and I respect her.

    Great movie. Real down to earth, no real need for computers & all that. Very real life -- sends a positive message.

    One of the best movies! Michelle's character shows a new side to women. Creating someone that girls everywhere can look up to. Great director! and totally inspired me to take boxing classes.

    Piles on the cliches from the getgo although Michelle Rodriquez' performance is spot-on.

    A terrific little uppercut of a boxing movie and close to a perfect one.
  2. While Rodriguez punches through the indie clutter to announce herself as a superb new movie talent, so Kusama scores big points in her first main event.
  3. Refreshing and surprising, the way independent movies are supposed to be.
