I had never heard of the film until I came across it over on Slash, so I did a little poking around after my initial interest. First and foremost, star Semra Turan is actually a martial arts expert, which is always a plus. The plot addition of a love story is a little disappointing--a straight up, but serious/dramatic take on a martial arts film would be immensely refreshing at this point, and especially one with a female lead. Either way, Fighter looks to be definitely above-grade, and the trailer, which Twitch calls, "misleading but awesome" does look to be about that. I'll keep my eyes out for the DVD release.
