First rule is, I can't talk about it. Second rule is, I can't talk about it.

I have lost count of how many times I watched that movie. So many great details.

And I think most people take away the wrong message. It is critic and not encouragement.

It's a philosophical movie about breaking yourself apart and rebuilding yourself consciously.

Not hard to understand why so many people don't get that part of it. It's a deeply introspective movie, not just about sweaty guys fighting each other.
