Astonishing

The universe is absolutely stunning, comparable to nothing I have ever seen... so gorgeous, unique and intriguing that I wished I could watch much of it in slow motion just to enjoy the works of art passing across the screen.
Watch interviews with producers and actors of this film to fully appreciate this remarkable, refreshing film. It is technically not “animated” at all, but "captured performance." The actors in this film had to train physically for months to do the stunts in the film and even facial expression and therefore depth of emotion is captured. The producers talk a lot about how they wanted everything to be believable and they have succeeded, with the exception of one battle scene.
Story not new, but presented well...
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Mostly True to Form

For the most part, Drew Barrymore did a decent job representing the sport, in my opinion. Drew's character was the only one that was more "entertainingly physical" than what I've ever seen at an actual bout. I don't fault the fun in it, though.
Sport aside, the movie is entertaining and while I could have done without yet another teenage *"indiscretion" scene, I appreciated that it turned out more life-like, and that the character handled the unfortunate situation with the creep afterward in a way that I wish more girls, and women for that matter, would emulate.
*Using the three-letter S word was not allowed in the review. It was flagged as profanity.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
