Come Out Fighting

After coming across this I read the reviews and decided to give it ago on Tubi - I see some of the "critics" on here bashing? To answer some of you as to why some people rate this high, my take is first it says the budget was $65K? If that is the case it was pretty well done, the 2nd dialogue was catchy, Story was good, there were moments I laughed the Freddie character was every guy I grew up with, funny loser. The acting is 90% at least all of the leads were solid especially the lead guy Jazz, sort of like a poor man's Stallone. Fighting scenes could have been better, but something about the film it has heart, and the ending was not atypical "hero's ending by any means that you see so much in these types of films. I didn't see it coming. Has an 80's feel for sure, I thought the title song on the end credits sounded familiar and it seems that is John parr UK rock star famous for the hit song St Elmo's fire, That was pretty cool. Overall, I liked it and its worth a watch but if you're a critically acclaimed film snob expecting a studio film watch something else.

I watched this film on tubi and although it seems a small budget indie film once it got going I was surprised how good it was - lots heart clever dialogue - acting was solid -lead actors very "rocky" like--nice twist at the end with the grand prize lol clever-wounderful little low budget indie.

Saw this film at a showing while in Az. at Harkins theater last Sunday night. I was pleasantly surprised at the emotions the film took me through. Great writing by Mr. Joe Ricci who also starred in the film, as he should have. His persona and demeanor brought the character Jazz to life... someone who was down on his luck, just needing a break. Who hasn't been in that position ever? A film most people can relate to very well, with a splash of humor thrown in, mix well and serve! Come Out Fighting, a very palatable and pleasurable film. Congratulations to the cast and crew, production et., all. Well done. Will be looking forward to whatever Mr. Ricci comes up with next.

I know it's low budget indie film but I'm a great admirer of this film and ones like this. I find it to be incredibly engaging and the story is pretty good. Fight scenes could have been a little better but they did pull it off. I've never had the chance to see any of these actors but I believe they were good at what they did. I myself have been around the world and seen a lot of the 'actual' bare knuckle fights. This does come close to some 'encounters' I have personally witnessed, I was in the Navy, to say the least it's a world you would not want to be around. I think this is a good film and truly enjoyed watching it. Thx to all who put this together. 🍿

I want to start out by saying that Writer, Producer, Actor, Joe Ricci brought the work ethic of the great films I grew up on back in Come Out Fighting!!...Rocky 1 and Cool Hand Luke are two films I loved and I see some elements in story and flavor of those two classics coming through big for the Dapper and Tough, yet Gentle soul of the lead, JAZZ played by Ricci. He was outstanding and showed "A List" potential in his first starring role in a feature!

I never want to hear again from anyone that a film around $100K or less can't hit the spot in quality, acting, edit, score, sound and lighting, which in every case I was amazed at all Joe and his team did to prove that fresh faces and talented crew are born in other places besides Hollywood!

This cast of local Arizona actors stormed the gates of stardom and knocked it down! I laughed, I cried, I got upset, which is golden since I am really hard to please. I can't stand films of today where you leave disappointed. Praise God Joe weathered the storm and went against the grain of casting past their prime names who could not do any better than the people that made this happen for pennies on the dollar.

A 10 in my book! GO SEE THE FILM is all I can say. The Fights are very real and the Love Story is a great contrast. Props to Leading Lady Michelle Palermo who was loyal and loving, she stuck the part ala Talia Shire in Rocky..

Richard Ryan was a great antagonistic bad guy and Anthony Pavelich who was the biggest surprise for me showed many layers and added comedic relief to the film. Job well done and a film to be proud of!
