Dominic B @RT83360345 Aug 25, 2026 I regret wasting five hours on this. The main character has no charisma whatsoever and is not believable in this role. The story is (badly) lifted from Rocky, with some cringeworthy bits added - anything to do with his Mum or his bro - plus some over the top stuff, i.e. what happens in Stockholm. A lot of cameos of famous fighters (not known to me, but they surely cannot act). Some of the fight scenes are quite good and involving. But as for the announced second season (the bolted-on cliffhanger at the end of the last episode was one of the worst moments of season 1) - no merci.

Rewatch Rocky and skip this tripe. See more DJS T @RT93886608 Jan 21, 2025 The Cage is an intense and inspiring show about Taylor’s journey to becoming a UFC fighter. With realistic fight scenes and raw storytelling, it captures the physical and emotional struggles of chasing greatness. The series balances action with heartfelt moments, making every victory and setback deeply personal. Whether you’re a UFC fan or just love a good underdog story, The Cage is a must-watch.

Seeing the cameo appearances of Cyril Gane and GSP adds to the fun. Series 2 has been announced which is great news this can run and run See more Basil S @RT45062335 Nov 28, 2024 Caron, stars Melvin Boomer as Taylor, a determined MMA fighter striving to overcome personal and professional challenges. The series, while built on the foundation of MMA drama, struggles to deliver the thrill expected of its genre. The fight scenes feel uninspired, lacking the intensity of real-life matches, and the story follows a predictable path with a stereotypical aggressive villain, played rapper Bosh, and a calm hero. The romantic subplot fails to resonate, and the acting performances are average at best. Despite some involvement from real MMA figures like Georges St-Pierre, the choreography and cinematography leave much to be desired. If you're a fan of MMA and have the time, it might be worth checking out, but don't go in with high expectations. See more Read all reviews
