Featured reviews
The movie follows the path of the usual underdog story. The green screen effects seem very off often. The movie does not not make any new innovations in "the underdog plot" causing it to become very stale and predictable. The only person in this movie who is entertaining is Jonathan Good who acts with a lot of conviction. The fight scenes however are also a big plus as they are very well choreographed. Overall, an inoffensive film with a pro-wrestler as it's best actor (no wonder).
Maybe cinematography is not the best. But it is as good as should be in MMA movie. The characters are believable. The fights are good too. I felt the struggle. A decent movie that is worth a watch.
I guess this movie might be OK to watch if you're friends with any of the actors and you watch it as a "Fun thing" whilst getting hammered on beer and weed.
It was truly a rather boring and predictable movie, and the animations used in the fight scenes were just straight awful, like wtf.
Thank you for reading this banger of a review.

Are you ready to witness the cheese-fest that is "Cagefighter: Worlds Collide"? Prepare to have your cheese scale shattered as this MMA flick delivers a hilarious, cringe-worthy, yet undeniably entertaining experience.
The film follows the story of Reiss Gibbons (Alex Montagnani), a street fighter with dreams of making it big in the MMA world and winning the approval of his estranged father (Chuck Liddell). Sound familiar? That's because this movie embraces every cliche in the sports genre with open arms, cranking up the cheesiness to new heights.
Alex Montagnani's performance is impressive, blending martial arts skills with just the right amount of cheese to make his character likable. Chuck Liddell may not be the next Daniel Day-Lewis, but he adds authenticity to the MMA world, making you almost forget the abundant cheese.
What elevates "Cagefighter" to must-watch status is its commitment to cheesy dialogue and over-the-top training montages. The script is so corny that it becomes a comedy of errors, resulting in a delightful cheese-nado of unintentional laughs.
This movie is the perfect choice for anyone who loves their sports movies with extra cheese. So grab your favorite cheesy snacks, prepare your best one-liners, and get ready for a night of cringing, laughing, and cheering as you enter a world where cheese reigns supreme. Who knows, you might just find yourself rooting for the underdog and craving a grilled cheese sandwich by the end!

Cagefighter: Worlds Collide directed by Jesse Quinones and starring newcomer Alex Montagnani as Reiss Gibbons, is a breath of fresh air in the world of combat sports movies!
Jesse has a good style of directing with the pace feeling very well balanced throughout yet not rushed which can be difficult to pull off with fight movies & Alex is very likeable as Reiss, he's got a good heart and you want to see him win!
The movie also has Legendary Combat Sports talents such as Chuck Liddell, Luke Rockhold, Jonathan Good aka Jon Moxley and Jay Reso aka Christian, who all churn out solid performances in their very fitting roles!
Liddell is perfect in his role as Reiss's trainer Marcus and exhibits dramatic chops which will surprise people. Rockhold plays his role well as the pushy glory hunting trainer, Moxley is electric, crushing it as the larger than life smack talking superstar wrestling protagonist who demands respect and is happy to prove he belongs in the cage & Reso is brilliant as this worlds Joe Rogan/ Ariel Helwani type character!
Elijah Baker and Georgia Bradner offer great performances as Reiss 's quick witted manager and Reiss's loving partner & Gina Gershon totally owns her role as the tough as old boots Max Black, owner of Legends which feels like this worlds equivalent of the UFC!
This movie offers realistic fight scenes, good drama and a true insight into the world of MMA that we rarely get to see depicted on screen!
I'd happily see a sequel as this exciting world they've created with intriguing characters is certainly worth further exploring and delving deeper into!
Roll on a sequel, I wanna see that 3rd fight!
