BORN A CHAMPION Review: To Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, With Love

Every fighter has a story to tell – each topped with reasons and events attributing why it is they do what they do. In the role that actor Sean Patrick Flanery portrays in director Alex Ranarivelo’s latest, Born A Champion, there’s a ton to explore here, and much more as the story progresses right down to midway in the end credits. Born A Champion comes from a star and director pair who bring a clear and driven vision to the table, using all the necessary ingredients to craft together a gritty, entertaining MMA drama. It certainly helps that Flanery, who himself has been a purveyor of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu since 2001 and is now Gracie system black belt, co-wrote the pic with Ranarivelo. It’s especially understandable for anyone who never knew this about Flanery (myself included until about 2018, to be perfectluly honest), particularly for fans of martial arts movies. […]

Voltage Pictures is officially launching sales this week for Reagan, a new biopic based on the life of the 40th President of the United States.

Dennis Quaid (Midway) and Penelope Ann Miller (The Bronx Bull) will star in the respective roles of title character, and of First Lady, Nancy Reagan.

With a first poster and trailer in our wake, the film offers up an intriguing entry from Dennis Quaid as a home owner who clearly never should have sold it.

But when the strangely attached seller (Dennis Quaid) continues to infiltrate their lives, they begin to suspect that he has hidden motivations beyond a quick sale.

Click here and you’ll find yourself immersed into a contemplative and intriguing little world set for us in the Jonathan Baker and Josh Baker-directed 2014 shortfilm, Bag Man. The short went on to become a Grand Jury nominated favorite last year at SXSW and much to the delight of its creators as well as the viewers who rightfully enjoyed it, and it’s pretty easy to see why. As such, that project has drawn its appeal as a workable sci-fi action picture now titled Kin for its advacement into feature film territory.
