Product Description

Over the past decade, Mixed Martial Arts has grown from a controversial, no-holds-barred sideshow into a billion-dollar phenomenon eclipsing boxing as the dominant combat sport in the world. FIGHTVILLE shows how MMA has taken hold in the American heartland, where modern-day gladiators battle in strip mall gyms and dusty rodeo arenas desperate for glory and a shot at the big time. In Lafayette, Louisiana, far from the glamorous and lucrative world of Las Vegas bouts, pro hopefuls Dustin aThe Diamonda Poirier and Albert Stainback fight tooth and nail for their shot at the American Dream. This thrilling, unflinching and ultimately moving documentary offers a cage-side view of these passionate and powerful athletes as they put their bodies on the line in the quest for fame and fortune.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome movie - really captures MMA world most fighters experience

    Great guys, sweet fights, and very fun movie to watch. Most people don't realize how much work and sacrifice it takes to be a true mixed martial artist, and Fightville does a terrific job illustrating just how mentally and physically challenging the sport is, showing you need respect, discipline and a solid work ethic to succeed - not just a big mouth, big muscles, and a mean mug like some in the public mistakenly believe.

    I've watched this several times and really enjoy the behind the scenes opportunity this gives you. Has been neat watching Dustin Poirier's climb through the UFC.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Human MMA

    I was able to catch this movie at a film festival last year and I was thoroughly impressed. This is a great, even-handed, documentary revealing MMA fighters to be human people, and MMA to be a very human sport, complete with flaws and little perfections. Must see for MMA fans, sports fans, and documentary fans.

    Really great insight and a must see if interested in behind the scenes workings of the MMA business! Dustin Poirier's story and commitment is amazing- he is so focused, intense, and relentless pursuing his goals! Great story of what goes on before these guys actually make it big in the MMA world!!!

    The featured fighters, trainers, and promoter are all very entertaining. You want to root for every person who gets screen time. Some mma doccumentaries are uneven and have great segments interwoven with poorly edited fluff. This one works all the way through.

    3.0 out of 5 stars I was a little let down.
    Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2012

    It may have been that my expectations were too high. I had heard of this movie before and had a few bucks so I thought I would buy it. I am a big MMA fan and appreciate the human interest side of the sport as well as the mental fortitude and many techniques. This movie does give you an inside look for the people invovled and is a good intro for those that are not as familiar with the sport or simply regard it as human cock fighting, but as a big fan I was left feeling a little flat when it ended. I am glad I saw it, but I wish I had rented it instead of buying it. I watched once, but am not sure I would watch it again.
