That is surprising I figured you would have been one of the 1st here to see it.

I think I may check out the 2002 HBO Doc of the same name.
The Smashing Machine: The Life and Times of Extreme Fighter Mark Kerr

OK, now I understand. The 2025 movie is just a complete ripoff of the real 2002 Documentary with Mark Kerr. It is crazy, Line for Line, scene by scene almost exactly the same. The Roc is just running the same lines as Mark Kerr did in the Documentary. This is why there is no movie magic with flashbacks going back in time to give further details. Is the 2025 movie supposed to be a fake documentary?

There is a little more behind the scenes History and a lot more PRIDE footage in the 2002 Documentary, and the movie does have a few scenes from Mark's life that are exploited for shock value.

Those real PRIDE fights in the documentary were just brutal. I think they might have toned it down in the 2025 movie. Funny, the one thing that Roc's movie totally got right was Mark Kerr's trainer Bas Rutten, who was played by Bas Rutten himself 25 years later.

I am very impressed with the 2002 Doc, as Mark Kerr really allowed the cameras to show all the good and bad parts of his life.

 

The Age of Disclosure

 

I love stuff like that. Had to steal a family's member password to watch it.

 

Oldie but goodie, Catch-22. Have not watched it in years. Found it on by chance. Pretty big movie and book when it came out. Great black comedy set during WW2.

 

No, its supposed to be a drama. I would bet large sums of money had they taken more liberties with the film some(including you) would complain its not real.
