I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

It is a performances centric movie

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Michael Jai White is one of the baddest men on the planet, so it was inevitable that he would follow in the footsteps of Van Damme, Seagal, Norris etc etc into movies. A martial artist of supreme skill and deadly grace, White brings not only his imposing physique and skills to the film, but also a moody poise to the role of Isaiah Bone, an ex-convict who infiltrates an underground fight circuit to avenge the murder of a friend.There is absolutely no surprises in store here, narratively speaking, but the action, the choreography and the editing are high grade stuff. So strap yourself in and roll with it, let the kinetic fury grab you, and rejoice as another martial arts expert enters the fray late in the day.A terrific action film, hoo-hah! 7/10

First of all I'd like to point out that people who poorly reviewed this film or simple dismissed it as a straight to video B-Movie clearly missed the point. If you think going into this movie you were going to get Oscar worthy acting, high budgeted local and special effects, you simply missed the point. This movie intentionally has a simple plot which I'm not going to get into because that's not the reason to watch this movie. This film also doesn't need a crazy budget for what it is trying to accomplish. This film is all about showcasing Micheal Jai Whites brutal, high flying martial art skills and excellent stunt work. That's really it. I can honestly say that this movie was made to show how great of a martial artist he is and it amazes me that this guy doesn't get more work in mainstream Hollywood movies. After all people would be surprised to know that Jai White is just about 50 years old and he looks and moves like someone who is in their 20's maybe even early 30's. If you are a fan of the action films of the 80's and 90's, this is a movie for you. Micheal Jai White absolutely brings his A-Game in the fighting sequences. Any fan of the action/ martial art genre will enjoy this movie. I will finish by saying, turn off your brain and enjoy the killer fight scenes. I just hope they decide to make a sequel.

I just finished watching this movie. I don't know how you could give this movie anything other than a 10 rating. Superb acting, production, writing, and very realistic martial arts and fighting. I loved every bit of it. I wish they would make a 2nd one. Michael White was amazing both in acting and fighting. Great story line too. It had motivating subplots and a perfect blend of mysteries in the plot to keep you wanting more. A 10 out of 10 easy on this one. A must see. Michael White's acting was both realistic and moving in my opinion. I actually started to want to be like him. Not just physically but personality-wise as well. He was very smooth purposeful in this movie and just amazing in my opinion. I have to go now so I can go out and buy it.

Isaiah Bone (White) gets out of prison and ends up renting a room at an L.A.-area house run by Tamara (Gaye). Bone is a quiet and mysterious man, and we don't know much about his past. What we do know is that he's an outrageously talented fighter, and he proceeds to get involved with the illegal, underground Punchfighting circuit. Immediately recognizing that Bone is head-and-shoulders better than the normal street thugs, charismatic fight promoter Pinball (Basco) takes him under his wing and Bone moves up the ranks. This puts him in the sights of James (Walker), a high-class thug with aspirations to join the ranks of the ultra-wealthy, as represented by Franklin McVeigh (Sands). James also recognizes Bone's fighting talents and wants to use him to break into the really big time. But Bone has his own reasons for doing what he's doing, and only his strength and personal honor and integrity guide him through his mission. But will he make it out alive? Blood and Bone is as good a movie you could possibly hope for in the world of the modern-day Punchfighter. There's just enough depth and interesting things going on with the plot and characters to raise it above the muck and mire of the "I-punch-you-you-punch-me-and-that's-it" Punchfighters out there. Seemingly, it's a movie out of time, as we felt this could have come to the movie theater, had it only been released in 1997 or so. The only things that mark it as new are some brief - but still unfortunate and unnecessary - uses of CGI. Otherwise, the plot has a nicely familiar feel, and Michael Jai White makes a powerful hero.As for MJW, we've always been huge fans. His Martial Arts abilities and screen presence have only continued to improve since Ring of Fire III (1995) and Ballistic (1995), which is rare. It's a joy to watch him execute his moves. One of the great injustices in life is that Steven Seagal is more of a household name than White. White deserves to be in the action pantheon with Dolph, Van Damme, (and unfortunately, Seagal). His appearances in two of the Universal Soldier movies make sense towards that aim, but it seems MJW is primarily known in the action community. We feel he deserves wider recognition. As for fellow fan favorite Gina Carano, she has a criminally small part. It would have been awesome to see her team up with MJW to take down the baddies. Maybe someday that will happen.As for Julian Sands, you might ask yourself what he's doing in an urban-themed modern-day Punchfighter. His one scene where he verbally faces off against James should answer all your questions. One of the things that make Blood and Bone a worthwhile movie, besides its pleasantly surprising spurts of intelligence at times, is its sense of humor, which is well-portioned out. We don't know if this was on purpose, but in a throwback to the Blaxploitation movies of the 70's, all the Caucasian characters are just lightweight, silly, stereotypical whiteys. The Punchfighter "Cowboy" is just a "redneck" stereotype, the white family that eats dinner with James wear sweaters around their necks and listen to Wang Chung, and Julian Sands is the whitest person on earth. It's hard to discern whether the tried-and-true plot line and some characteristics of the movie are homages to the past, or just a simple lack of originality. That's the danger of homages, the audience might misunderstand your intentions. The Hitter and Lionheart seem to be primary influences.But just as in all great movies, Blood and Bone gets its own title song during the end credits. Seeing as how it's a competently-made film with just the right amount of depth, and you really have a hero to root for in MJW, we feel that Blood and Bone is one of the better modern-day Punchfighters out there.
