Wordiezett So much average

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Kenneth Chamitoff PROJECT STATUS: January 10th, 2015 During the production of MONEY FIGHT there were three PHASES of production.. Phase One: This first vision of the film Starring Ernie Reyes Junior, Maria Conchita Alonso, with John Savage and George Takei was licensed and distributed in several foreign territories including: Germany, Greece, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, and Brazil. Phase Two: We decided to rework the project to include more back story to the main characters and add other theatrical elements including; Ving Rhames, Matthias Hues, Aerial Photography, shooting at various gorgeous outdoor locations such as the boot camp in Valley of Fire and the Las Vegas Strip. We also added many elements with high production value, more heart, more romance, more sex appeal, better sound design, etc. We added several fights from known celebrity athletes and re-edited the entire feature to incorporate the full hour of additional footage. From this we created a very fast paced version of the film. The budget of this rework was $2,000,000. This film was showcased at AFM in 2012. This version of the film was licensed and distributed in several foreign territories including: Australia, New Zealand, Middle East, France, UK and a re-release in Germany. However, we did not find a suitable US theatrical distribution deal, so we decided to get back to work.Phase Three: After receiving great feedback from the international distribution community and additional funding from the limited international release, we decided to invest in a more fluid and heart felt re-edit of the project. We consulted with Steve MIrkovic, the award winning editor of Passion of the Christ, Con-Air, 16-Blocks and almost all of John Carpenters films. With his leadership and insight we created MONEY FIGHT. We invested a full year in post-production and another $500,000 into this final vision of the film which included scenes and footage never seen in either of the previous versions of the film, a greatly enhanced sound track, a dynamic re-edit of all the fights, beautiful sound design and color work. One may consider this version of the film "the director's cut." We prefer to refer to it as the final realization of a worthwhile story… Our vision realized. This final cut entitled MONEY FIGHT has not been seen by the distribution community. It was test screened in San Jose on September 21st 2012, and received standing ovations and a one week box office gross of over $9000. Marketing: We have invested nearly $400,000 into grass roots marketing leading up to this point. The entire martial arts community in the US is aware of the project in one form or another and eager for its release. The marketing has included having over 2000 martial arts school owners being bussed from the Martial Arts Super show to a sneak peek screening. Booths and poster signings at UFC Expo's, ATA World and National Karate Tournaments, and most importantly, we have produced three televised live fights that are currently being showcased throughout many TV networks.Current Objective: We are seeking out methods and relationships to release the film MONEY FIGHT theatrically in North America and then distribute the remaining rights worldwide.

jackmeat Submission, err, Red Canvas or Art of Submission released in 2009, or 2012, or, oh, forget it, all the same movie. This is a MMA action/drama movie centering around the plight of a young adult who wants to train to be a mixed martial arts star. Of course, he is in troubled times and the movie attempts to juggle the action with the drama but falls short on it. The tempo switching in this movie is often too random to hold the audiences attention, while debating if this is a tear-jerker, or just a beat 'em up flick. The fighting sequences at times are very well done, and other times, just plain silly. Ernie Reyes Jr. does a decent job acting as the main character, often being forced to shift gears from a apprehensive heavy to a sentimental person of the film quite quickly. Ving Rhames (big fan of) plodded through this movie, seemingly unconvinced of why he was there. I may have been a bit more sold on this movie had it not been the length of it. By the films finale, I just felt more or less like "get it over already" so I will. 3.9/10

inovme Just a great "feel good" movie full of great MMA fight scenes. I'm so tired of the illegal underground fight movies that send out a negative message and giving MMA a bad rap. This movie has Rocky, and the Karate kid wrapped together providing the viewers with a pleasant experience. I enjoyed watching REAL MMA fighters like Frank Shamrock and Grey Maynard instead of actors act like fighters. Also good to see the training scenes filmed at the TAPOUT gym in Las Vegas. Ving Rhames, is classic as the gym owner and trainer and George Takei is alway fun to watch as he plays the villain running a corrupt made for TV fight show. John Savage was also a nice surprise as he plays the prison warden. Ernie Reyes is the movies hero who has to take on life's hurdles as he struggles with life, love and family. Great Job fellas, in my opinion this is a must see!

rjhoward111 This movie is a must for anyone interested in mixed martial arts. The fight scenes between Ernie Reyes Jr. and his opponents are awesome... carefully choreographed, precisely delivered and authentic. I wanted to see more. The older audience will recognize the legendary Dan Severn and Frank Shamrock from their involvement in the mix martial arts industry. The movie has the power to inspire the youth of today to achieve their dreams and true potential when a challenge is brought forth. Both men and women will enjoy this movie. It has all the action men need while incorporating heart felt drama of a family struggling with a rebellious son. The movie ends with an emotional bonding between father and son.
