Scorpion

Scorpion is certainly not a fighting movie, the combat scenes are not very impressive.

But the story is good (not great, but good!). It reminds me Danny the Dog (from Luc Besson with Jet Li). First of all, it's the story of a man who seems a bit strange because of his past. And he is getting better, appreciating life again...

The music is giving the right atmosphere. The director makes a good job, this is not boring (as often in french movie, and I can say that because I am french!).

So we spend a good time, you can watch it!

The film looked good in the trailers. It looked brutal and the fights looked realistic. I thought this was going to bring MMA into mainstream movies. I thought this was going to be the future of Mixed Martial Arts movies. What a let down, which was made worse by the fact that i watched it without subtitles (the film's in French, i think). This was billed as a Mixed Martial Arts movie, but it didn't have any proper fights. the fights did not necessarily have to be fancy, but they could've done some better choreography. Even Power Rangers had better fights than this. Martial Artists or MArtial Arts fans stay away from this movie.

The script can be a bit melodramatic at times but the acting is good and the fight scenes are good. If you like martial arts films and you are a fan of Clovis Cornilliac, Karole Rocher, Caroline Proust or Olivier Marchal then this film is worth watching.

In my eyes this film was great. Trailer was a beast and was worried that the film might not live up to my expectations... But it did! good story, good fighting, hot women... hey what more can a guy ask for! It's a simple story easy to understand and easy to watch The fighting is good although more could have been shown but what was shown was very enjoyable. Big Angelo is a champ no matter who he is up against he will accept the challenge! scorpion is awesome! Reviews i have read have been harsh as far as i'm concerned for a lower budget film it really is superb! I would recommend this as A Must watch if you enjoy fighting films.

Scorpion is one of those movies which you will watch for the sake of watching. I mean french action movies are rarley boring, and Scorpion ain't no different. Okay it sets the mood nicely however the acting may not be the greatest but it certainly is entertaining. Check it out if your a fan of mixed martial arts movies , however don't expect anything big or like the best mixed martial arts movie. The acting is cheesy , the script is crap but the story told is a good one and thats what keeps you watching , its like one of tough guy movies you just watch for the sake of watching.
