The more things change, the more they stay the same… A mantra that couldn’t be more apt for a fight flick like Tapped Out.
As a child of the 80s I grew up on the likes of The Karate Kid and its sequels. As a film fan in the 90s I watched movies such as Showdown, Kickboxer, Bloodsport and A Dangerous Place. How are these film connected? And what do they all have in common with Tapped Out? Well essentially they all feature the same underdog story. An underdog story which has has existed, and has been re-used time and time again, in the martial arts genre for decades – taking in karate, taekwondo, kickboxing and now mixed martial arts (Mma).

The rebranding of sulky-drawers Murray got off to an unpromising start, while a timely reminder of workhouse inhumanities made powerful viewing

Andy Murray - The Man Behind the Racquet seemed to be part of the ongoing drive to reframe Murray, from number two-seeded, Us Open-winning, sulky-drawers face-ache, to someone, well, nicer, or at least more marketable.
Presented by Sue Barker in the wistful preoccupied way of a woman who finds it hard to forget how fine Jimmy Connors once looked in his tight white shorts, it wasn't entirely unconvincing. Though I'm still not persuaded that crying because you've lost a Wimbledon final means you're any "nicer" than you were before you became publicly emotionally incontinent. Nor am I convinced that...

Certainly the title that stands out the most in this batch of ratings is 30 Nights Of Paranormal Activity With The Devil Inside The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and it won't be hitting theaters as it is a Fox Home Entertainment release, but I can't seem to find any information on it. It's not The Starving Games from the Date Movie jokers Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer and IMDb has nothing on it and I think I almost broke Google searching for all those titles at once. Other than that we have what sounds like a strong R rating for Looper and a rating for the Aussie flick Wish You Were Here starring Joel Edgerton and Felicity Price. Now scroll on down and browse the latest MPAA ratings from Bulletin #2238. 23:59 Rated R For some violent content. 30 Nights Of Paranormal Activity With The Devil Inside The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo...
