Oops, another strong film that is brought down in the mood for the wrong reasons. I thought it was an incredibly strong film about femininity and strength, about how a young woman literally manages to fight herself above her male friends, only to discover that it is not tolerated socially after all. Painful realistic.

Underrated, powerful, well-directed movie with an excellent Michelle Rodriguez with the right attitude (love to see her in movies anyway, but I think this is the first lead role I see her in). Thick 4*.

“When your not training, Someone else is thraining, To kick your Ass!”
Great movie by Karyn Kusama. Girlfight isn't very original and it looks a bit amateurish at times (especially the boxing scenes), but Rodriguez carries the film very well and Diana is also a character you want to keep following. I didn't want the romantic subplot and Douglas isn't the best actor I've ever seen, but everything about Diana and her family problems and dream of making it as a boxer keeps Girlfight interesting to watch.
