PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"Skillfully made and adrenalin-fueled, Warrior is nothing like what I expected. It overcomes inescapable boxing and martial arts clichés and leaves you thoroughly sated, energized and wanting more" (Rex Reed: The New York Observer)

----------------------------------------
"'Warrior' is a straight genre picture, a fight movie of the old school. But it's a mixed martial arts tale, and as such, it's the best MMA movie ever (...) Rating: *** (out of four)" (Roger Moore: Orlando Sentinel)

----------------------------------------
"An improbably effective and affecting mix of raw emotions and exciting smackdowns" (Joe Leydon: Variety)

----------------------------------------
"It hardly rewrites the rulebook, but Warrior is a powerful, moving and brilliant sports-pic-cum-family drama. Like The Fighter, but with kicking. (...) Rating: ***** (out of five)" (Dan Jolin: Empire)
