This movie sets back womens rights 2 decades.
Stop trying to prove stupid things.
Stop copying something successful and then make it female.
Just stop.

This is utterly a poor attempt to show women in a position of power and strength--which in turns does nothing but insults them. This is not a movie worth watching. The attempt to show that women can fight and be tough is a total miss in this film. I've seen other films that do a better job in portraying women as strong and battle ready. This film looks like a failed attempt to soft porn with poor acting. The dialogue is horrible, the 'anger', the 'sense of injustice' all is forced. The fight scenes---ugh--seen better fight scenes in a high school play! Don't waste your time.
Well, "Female Fight Club" definitely had lots of potential to have been a great martial arts movie. But somehow all that potential was just carelessly squandered at the hands of director Miguel A. Ferrer.
While this 2017 movie was no contender to the 1999 "Fight Club" movie, it was on the right track, but then it got horribly sidetracked by writers Anastazja Davis and Miguel A. Ferrer setting out to want way too much with their storyline, and managing to deliver only half of such.
The storyline in "Female Fight Club" is about as generic as it comes for a movie of this type. So you know exactly what you are getting here when you sit down to watch it.
As for the acting, well I initially sat down to watch "Female Fight Club" because I saw Dolph Lundgren was in it. Little did I know that his role was so small that it hardly could be called a supportive role.
For a martial arts movie, then there were surprisingly little fighting going on actually. Sure, there were fight scenes, but I had expected heaps more, instead of all the family drama taking place on the screen. And to make matters worse, then the fight scenes weren't all that phenomenal.
All in all, "Female Fight Club" was a less than mediocre martial arts action movie. It had potential, but that potential never came into fruition at the hands of the director. As such, I am rating "Female Fight Club" a mere four out of ten stars, as it was mildly enjoyable and watchable, yes. But hardly an outstanding or memorable movie here.

Very poor acting with unbelievable fight sequences. A low budget action flick that just misses the mark.
The only resemblance between this movie and Fight Club is in the title. The version I watched was called "Fight Squad" instead of Fight Club. Anyone who talks about politics in relation to this movie must have a very, very small ... feeling of self-confidence. Tiny!
The story follows a typical action movie arc. There are illegal MMA-style fights taking place in a warehouse. The fighters are all women. Our hero was champion, walked away, but returns because of danger to her family. There's a little more to the story, but deep down it's a slightly watered-down action movie.
Dolph Lundgren plays the father of two of the women. His role is minor, but his presence/charisma elevates the movie a lot.
The fights are ok. They're similar to the kind of fights you see in a Fast and Furious movie. Not great, but still kinda fun. I wish there were more of them.
It would have been nice if the villain had been more interesting. He's pretty dull. Also, no chase scenes. A couple of good chase scene would have made this a *lot* better.
I'll watch it again when I want a stupid action movie as background noise - something that doesn't require me to pay close attention but is kinda fun.
