Never Back Down

Never Back Down

Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting...

''The Karate Kid'' did so well that they remade it twice (as sequels) and now it's back again, updated for the internet generation. Our hero is a teen with a volatile temper that gets him into trouble. Naturally he goes off pop against his new school's bully, and is soundly beaten. As luck would have it, he is introduced to a Mixed Martial Arts master, who teaches him physical and mental skills, by which time we're set for the inevitable rematch against the bully.


110 minutes, No persons under 16 (Violence)
Action, Drama, Sports.
