Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
Rio Hayward
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

If it were a student film, they'd barely pass, despite their $27,000,000 budget! (Could've fed 14k African villages for a decade - yes, I did the math).Plot summary: remember that episode of friends, where Monica's millionaire boyfriend Jon Favrau wanted to suddenly become the UFC champion? That's the plot here, except with an all female cast in the ghetto. The script is as stale as Adam Sandler's rotten tomatoes average. The acting as stiff as the late Roger Ebert's jaw.Everything is awful. The sound, the cameras used, the editing, the sets, the make up, etc...The single redeeming feature this film has is it's numerous lingering shots of Miesha Tate's ass.Imagine Brock Lesnar reciting Shakespeare; same thing.

OK - so after reading some of ya'll's reviews, I just wanted to start by saying this: take a step back, take a breath and laugh it off. Is Fight Valley the best movie you will ever have the privilege of seeing in this lifetime? Absolutely not. But, I think we can all agree that A. it's cool to see some huge UFC stars outside of the ring and B. if you just look at it aesthetically, and remember that this was not a million-dollar Spielberg blockbuster, it's 90-minutes worth of Camden, New Jersey realness! Director Rob Hawk takes audiences on an interesting ride they can enjoy from the comfort of their couches. Miesha Tate, I have to say, was probably the most natural, for never having acted a day in her life. She keeps it cool, keeps it badass and serves up some serious potential to land some future acting gigs if she wants to! Also, I personally really dug the makeup. Even though the fight scenes weren't as nail-bitingly gritty as one would expect from a film featuring primarily fighters, the makeup and special effects were cool to see on the screen! It's a quick 90-minutes. Take it for what it is, sit back and enjoy!!

I think Miesha Tate did a fantastic job with her first acting gig. She was natural and played her role just as though she was training with any one of her MMA peers. I think the other reviews left before mine are a little harsh considering this was a low budget movie you get what you pay for so chill folks. Holly Holm was also good for her first go on screen I wish she was in the movie a little more though. The buzz was all about "CupCake" + "The Preacher's Daughter" just saying maybe Rob Hawk shouldn't have edited down the scenes this much I know there was more to see.. And who on Earth would give speaking parts to "Cyborg" LOL come on now that's not her fault either her job was to look muscular and scary not scare us away with her English - I'm not throwing a dig at her I love her just as much as the other Fighters. I really liked the character JAIME one of the actresses (non fighters) Cabrina Collesides she was fantastic very comfortable on camera and funny as hell with her ghetto slang and lesbian humor. Just like Holly I wish we would have heard and seen more from Cabrina. There were a few casting question marks I had like who would believe the girl who played "Windsor" is only 30 the chick who played her Mom in the film looked younger - slight error there again not digging this actress just the person who cast her in this role in my opinion one of the younger girls should have played "Windsor" like for example "JAIME" / Cabrina. I give this film a 7 out of 10 because I wanted to see more fight scenes the music was fantastic and had me pumped up to see some punches thrown I think too much was put on the story line and not enough action. The hype for this film was the WMMA Fighters should have been more with that. The Serrano Sisters should have had bigger roles too. This film had all the right ingredients all of the right players just incorrect roles and not enough Kick Ass... I hope nobody gets offended by my review... I know most of the cast is actually from New Jersey so chill guys you did the best you could with your situation. Oh and out of the dudes in this film I liked "Stakes" Jefferson Sanders who is a trainer in real life maybe should have pursued a little something there in this film as well. Like I said before all the ingredients for an amazing feature were there they just weren't utilized to their best potential... 7/10 for an honest review. My 4 year old daughter gave it a 10/10 because Miesha Tate + Cabrina Collesides are her Idols put them together in a movie and this girl was in Heaven. You had some serious fighters on board for this how do you not even give the boxing sisters a chance to I don't know BOX - LOL

Plain simple it is rubbish! Awful acting, awful story (what story?) but awful FIGHT SCENES. Common people they're UFC fighters and it was just so bad i had to laugh. waste of time to watch! Big Miesha Tate fan as a person and a UFC fighter and her looks are the only positive i can say about this movie. I've seen better movies on YouTube so go figure. It makes me wonder how someone is able to make such a thing? I mean, somebody actually put effort in this movie thing. And this is the best you can do? Not blaming the actors, cos most of them aren't actors but UFC fighters. So i understand they want to participate in a movie and they think ow that's fun to do and try. but from the director to anyone creatively involved, please go find another job cos your not made for the movie industry.Please skip this movie and spend you time on anything but watching this.
