Ratings and reviews

I'm not usually into stupid teen movies like this but surprisingly I must say this movie is not that bad at all. I actually enjoyed the fights but needless to say it is one of those generic revenge teen movies. Quite similar to karate kid guess

One of the best fighting movies around, seen this movie so many times and still as good as the first time. Watch Never Back Down 2 Even Better

Amazing! Another one of them great 'feel good' movies, decent 'fight to get the girl' plot, surprises and exciting action around every corner!
