Sydney Sweeney delivers quite charismatically here as a young woman coming to terms with her own identity, whilst discovering she has quite a powerful punch. She, Christy Salters, has to keep her relationship with Rosie (Jess Gabor) under wraps from her slightly zealous mother (Merritt Wever) as her fighting skills attract the attention of a promoter who sees potential in her no-mercy style of fighting and who sends her to his trainer Jim Martin (Ben Foster). Initially, this man just wants shot of her but gradually learns to appreciate that she has a shot at something bigger.
