Just saw RedBelt

The MMA movie with Randy Couture in it. I thought is was real good. A story about a jiu-jitsu instructor dealing with an ordeal. I thought the fight scenes were realistic, this movie is way better than that garbage of a move "Never Back Down"

Never even heard about it when/if it hit theaters. Did the star look like he knew what he was doing, combat-wise?

This movie ranked up there with one of the absolute, most disappointing movies ever. I couldn't stand it...

I saw it with 2 of my buddies while it was in theaters. We all thought it was horrible. I've never come close to walking out of a movie, but this one came close. My friend and I were really stoked to see it because we're both hardcore MMA fans, my third buddy was just coming along for the fun of watching a movie (he's a movie guy).

On a scale 1 to 10, I'd give it about a 4...

I didn't like it. The plot relied too much on coincidences. The character development wasn't that good. There weren't many fight scenes. I don't want to spoil the plot, but half the time it didn't make much sense.

I don't know about red belt. But I am never watching "Never Back Down" Not even on DVD. I almost vomited during the commercial.

I liked this movie myself. It's definitely not along the lines of a steven segal by any stretch. The fight scenes are more realistic. The story's not that great.

For mma fans it's worth a watch.
