Watch Girlfight For Free

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Fresh and Exciting

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

GirlfightThe main thing that separates male and female boxers is the hair and make-up team the woman's corner. Mind up, the feminine prizefighter in this drama doesn't like to cover up her black eyes.Troubled teenager Diana (Michelle Rodriguez) finds an outlet for her angry when she attends her brother's boxing lesson. But she is unable to afford a trainer until he decides to drops out and pursue art.Eventually she forms a relationship with her sparring partner (Jaime Tirelli). But it is later jeopardized when they are set to fight one another, and he refuses to step into the ring.The gritty Indy love story that put Michelle Rodriguez on the map, Girlfight is a balanced battle- of-the-sexes sports drama that confronts heavyweight issues, like poverty, abuse and suicide, with tact and artistry.However, female boxing would be more popular if opponents didn't apologize to each other after every punch.

Girlfigh a coming-of-age story about boxing and love, its also Karyn Kusama's directorial debut, telling the story of how a girl finds herself in the world of boxing.One does not see many movies about women's boxing so often actually there very few. Diana lives with her brother and single dad, Sandro, in a housing project in Red Hook. Each week Sandro pays a local trainer to put some meat and muscle on his son, but when Diana decides she, too, wants to be a boxer, he refuses. With dogged determination, Diana begins a grueling training regimen, the discipline, cunning, and humility required to be a contender are the cold shower Diana needs to focus her ambitions. But when she falls in love with a promising amateur, her priorities are forced into burning focus...it looks like a good plot, but here is when the movie looses me for a movie about a female boxing there's not much of that, she spends the majority of the movie fighting men,there is a sole fight against another female witch is done pretty well it capture exactly what should look like when two people are boxing,but after that she only goes against men.surprisingly in this world which Kusama tries to give a real perspective of what is boxing in the shoes of a woman,decides to create a inter gender tournament because its so hard to find opponent's in a city like New York, were Diana and her love interest face one another,mixed boxing which is not sanctioned by any legitimate governing body, and are almost always intended to be a display in erotic exhibitionism.If the intention was to see how a woman can beat a man by sheer determination It never goes well in combat, because the man is in a no win situation on one hand he beats a woman which our society sees it as the outcome of the contest in the other hand he looses to the women he is seen as a weakling, besides we only see Diana train a few months and have ONE amateur sanction bout in the hole movie against the only female fighter in the movie and her love interest as been fighting for alonger period so in terms of skill and experience its more likely he would whip the floor with her.Do all female boxers have to best men to prove their equal? or they can show as great athlete's by besting themselves.The ending is very unrealistic for the simple fact that this type of tournament would exist and be sanctioned by the state of New York, had this movie been set in a state were only football is the only sport would make a more interesting scenario were the lack of support and opponents is more visible but NY is the cradle of the golden gloves.

I saw this movie twice. I thought Michelle Rodriquez was quite believable in her role; nice balance between being a tough yet feminine. Family situation also fairly realistic. I liked the way she handled her father. I thought the situation in which she found herself with her boyfriend was a twist I didn't anticipate. Made the movie suspenseful. I thought there were some good lessons for young people in this movie; finding yourself, not giving up, trusting, respect, what is love. There was no down time with this movie. It was suspenseful. When I watch a movie and I feel totally exhausted by the end and hate to see it end; I know it was a good movie. Such was the case. The relationship she had with her boyfriend was refreshing. I wish the movie was longer. I wanted to see how her career evolved . I would have liked to see whether her father could figure out how to have a relationship with her. Definitely a "new age" girl. Highly recommend this movie.

girlfight is using a well-known formula as someone pointed out, however, i have seen plenty of movies that don't do it this well or that are not this credible. i believe it is in the end easier for a woman to empathize the character and that way feel more touched by the movie.the movie is encouraging both mentally and physically even if your life and environment were completely different and, i think the viewer can still gain a lot by seeing this. although it took me 5 years to start boxing and sports in general, this is the movie that gave me the spark.so the plot is familiar/common. actors are good. but the thoughts that it can spark are what make it above average in my opinion. it made a big impression on me and i know i'm not the only one.
