Edited Plot section

OK, I went in and reduced the Plot section to about 60% of its previous length. Was I too severe, or does more need to be removed? Signed responses considered. (yes I'm a snob)Lincoln muadib (talk) 05:21, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Considering the length of various other "Plot" sections on other film pages, I think it would be fine to expand it back to its original length. I did not get to read the original text, so I honestly can't say for sure. I would mind seeing more detail.Kp.murphy (talk) 21:53, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This film had to have been sued

Honestly this is so obviously a fight club knock off it had to have been sued. It only serves to get a legitimate sport a bad rap. It is glorified street brawling dressed as MMA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.109.7.82 (talk) 11:14, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is not an area for discusion of the movie, there are numerous boards and sites for that. This page is for the discusion of the wikipedia page and ways to improve the page.

Ridiculous plot idea

Instead of going through a huge fight for his honor, why doesn;t he just call the police, and have this guy arrested for repeat beatings, attempted murder, etcetera? I mean he almost got killed, and the generic girl eh tries to win from the bad guyh says he hurts her. they'll probably make some excuse like they pay off the police...awful..... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.112.246.246 (talk) 04:38, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because it's a work of fiction, not an accurate depiction of life (see
monomyth). Although I agree it seems like a very poorly strung together plot. I also agree that the talk page is for the discussion of how to improve the article, and not for discussing the subject of the article itself. Thank you. Calgary (talk) 23:27, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply

Multiple Songs in Advertisements

Stop with 'Headstrong' by Trapt. It all started with '...To Be Loved' by Papa Roach. Now many songs are being used in the film's advertisements. 'Headstrong' is not the sole song usage for the film. MeanChe (talk) 17:00, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User Review in Article

Seems to me we have a user review in the middle of the article. I posted a POV.

==Vandalism==.,n.,

vandalmalism Im deleting this from the critical reception becouse it is obviosly a vandalism

"This movie was great Critics do nothing but try to act like they actually know shit and the do nothing but sit in the offices and masturbate to horrible movies that only people that have alzheimers like because they can't remember how bad they really are fucking douchebags."

Please say this in forums. Hakwam (talk) 04:24, 29 March 2008 (UTC) HAKWAM[reply]

Even better, don't say it even in forums, I don't need the mental image . . . *grins*Lincoln muadib (talk) 05:18, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't explain it, I'll revert it

OK, I asked the question here if I went too far or not far enough in reducing the "Plot" section to smaller size (see the top paragraph). The same unsigned user, however, ignored this and just went right in 5 times and readded what I consider unnecessary, clogging information. So I went in to revert.

I am happy to discuss changes, but unsigned, unexplained reverts to quagmired, overlong Plot sections I will revert- then explain my actions here. If this seems a touch macho It is not meant to. Lincoln muadib (talk) 23:59, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I responded above. Don't know if my view of it is acceptable or not, and I didn't add anything into the article itself. But for what it's worth, see above posted comment.Kp.murphy (talk) 21:56, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Who wrote this?

Seems like a 14 year old boy wrote this awful movie. a dont tink so lad dis iz an amazing film showing da arts ufc/mma and shows dat u rr all rong an i am right .

This is Actually written by some schmo who's only other writing credit was Homeward Bound 2 (he only converted the book into a screenplay, didn't come up with the story) —Preceding unsigned comment added by VerdolfOctane (talk • contribs) 05:01, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly? You think a 14 year old wrote this when you cannot even spell? Please. I'll take the decently good movie over the guy with the misspelled insults. 14:28, 10 December 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.148.191.155 (talk)

Did anyone else think of the Karate Kid when they watched this film? The similiarties are are many. Kid moves to new town with single mother, develops a crush on cute girl, bully taunts him, he meets a Mr Miyagi type of mentor, attempts to back out of big tournament only to end up fighting as bullies push him too far again. Not sure if it fits within Wiki to mention how this film is just a beefed up Karate Kid? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.101.209.73 (talk) 17:02, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not without a source. Please see

Ralph Macchio, a 22-year-old in 1984, played a 15/16-year-old high school kid in Karate Kid. Cam Gigandet, a 25-year-old in 2008, played a 16/17/18(?)-year-old high school kid in Never Back Down.

Removed "Filming" Section

I removed a section titled "Filming" from the page because that term is, in the film industry, identical to the term "Production," which was included earlier in the article. Also, the information written in the aforementioned "Filming" section didn't add any relevant OR sourced material that wasn't already a part of the "Production" section.Kp.murphy (talk) 21:58, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Amber heard not listed as a cast member

Why is amber heard not listed as a cast member. She is the female lead actress of the film 71.167.77.4 (talk) 11:07, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

She got edited out by someone. (see history: 02:27, 10 May 2022‎ by 2001:56a:f4b0:fb00:db0:34cb:9d1:944) I reverted that edit. 109.14.189.11 (talk) 14:08, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
