Blood and Bone

ActionAdventureCrimeDramaThriller93 min

Fresh out of prison, Michael Jai White is Isaiah Bone, a quiet drifter who enters Los Angeles’ underground fight scene to fulfill a promise to a dead friend. Bone’s skill makes him an instant draw, carrying him from back-room bouts to bigger, higher-stakes matches and into the orbit of the people making money off the circuit. Julian Sands and Eamonn Walker are among the faces crowding that world as Bone refuses to be handled on anyone else’s terms. The lineup also mixes in fight-world names including Gina Carano, Kimbo Slice, and Bob Sapp as Bone’s path through the city turns increasingly violent.
