I guess IF your into MMA it's OK BUT to compare it to classics like Apocalypse Now, Chinatown, or the original Moby Dick?
NOT being much of a fan of MMA, I found it
im not necessarily an MMA fan, but I am a fan of honor and integrity (and really good movies), that movie has a really tight script with a central character who embodies the concept of "hero" .. honestly, redbelt is just as solid a story as the movies I listed...

I like Mamet 's other movies better. House of games and Spanish prisoner.
just watched House of games, really good movie maybe even as good as redbelt ( there are prob less than 5 really confidence movies off the top of my head), BUT definitely NOT better than redbelt...what I think that males redbelt standout is that it dealt with a subject that hasnt been handled seriously in sometime and pulled that shit off like it was easy! It also had more characters involved in the story, which made it that much more technical and difficult to write and direct.
