My shitty life.

A life molded by a sick, fucked up world.

People always talk about making a difference.

I want to make a difference alright.

I want to kill every corrupt motherfucker driving this society into

the gutter.

That's great.

Thank you.

Police! Open up!

Ma'am, are you okay?

We got a call about a domestic disturbance.

I'm fine.

You don't look fine, ma'am.

Mind if I come in?

No.

Please. You don't need to.

Alright, ma'am. Everything's fine.

We're here to help.

Why don't you let us inside just for a couple of moments and we can talk about

it, okay?

Look, we know you're in trouble.

We can help you.

to get the fuck out of here.

Ma'am, we want to help you, but you have to help us first. Tell them to get the

fuck out of here now!

I was trying to... Fucking pigs!

Officers, please.

I'm fine, really.

Please leave.

Okay, well, we do need to make a report.

So why don't you step outside and speak with us out here?

And that way we can go ahead and get everything settled and we'll get a

square away from that.

Did you not hear what my wife said?

She doesn't want to speak with you. Now get the fuck out of here. I strongly

suggest you watch your tongue.

Is this what I pay my taxes for? For this harassment?

Hey! You okay, right?

See? She's fine. Now get the fuck out of here. Good night!

I can't cover for you again. That's it. It's the last time. No, you've said that

before.

I've got a family to watch out for and I could lose my goddamn badge.

I can't do it.

I'm requesting a new partner.

I'm sorry.

Why don't you listen to me?

Your son has been watching that fight crap again.

It's disgusting.

Mom, it ain't real.

Tony, tell your son it's real and that he can't watch it ever again.

Maria, calm down. What kind of demented person would make something like that?

Mark, that fighting is illegal.

Innocent people are dying from it.

If I catch you watching again, I'm taking your computer away. Do you

understand me?

Alright buddy, go play outside for a while.

I've heard about those fights.

Yeah, it's an underground fight competition.

It's run by a gambling syndicate.

Some sick shit.

Ah! The big monster truck's gonna get me!

Can you put this in the back of it?

Hey, lay it flat.

No.

And from that moment on, I knew they'd lose.

It took me by surprise.

You gotta look out for the writing on the wall.

Dude, did I ever tell you I'm like your brother to me?

Okay, here it comes. Every time you get drunk, you start crying all over me.

Yeah, seriously.

Hey, Maria.

Hey, family.

You're all I got.

Come on, you got your pops.

He doesn't exist, you know that.

Well, I'm here for you.

Both of us are here for you.

Sweetie, are the burgers about ready?

The kids are getting hungry.

Right now, honey.

How are things with that girl you were seeing?

Which one?

Come on, man, don't you want to settle down?

It has rewards.

Yeah, I'm too fucked up to be in a relationship.

I'm on edge all the time.

Always ready to snap.

Ever consider therapy?

I'm gonna kick my ass off the floor so they knew the way I think.

Dude, if you'd just chill your shit out a little bit, you'd be working with me.

You know I'd keep you in line.

I'm trying.

I can't.

It's getting to me.

All this sick shit I see every day.

Makes me want to take out every sick motherfucker ruining this world.

Violence begets violence.

Fine.

So why doesn't someone just stop it?

Just end it?

Because everybody knows that the criminals would end up ruling the world.

That's the point, they already do.

It's just one vicious cycle that has no end.

Why is life one miserable day after another?

Because our lives are a lie.

Leaders lie to us.

The media lies to us.

People lie to each other. We lie to ourselves.

Everybody's afraid.

We're greedy.

I don't buy into that.

I'm not going to buy into the sensationalism that's constantly being

stuffed down my throat.

I'm gonna be the raw person that I am.

I'm not just one thing.

I'm many.

I'm everything.

I don't need

superficial acceptance of what people think I am.

I just need to be allowed to be me.

Without society imposing its materialistic expectations or its

barbaric punishment for not buying into the rules created by its decadent

leaders.

That's being real to myself.

To everyone.

It's the change this fucked up world needs.

One, two,

three.

One,

two, three, two.

One, two, three, two.

One, two, three, two.

One,

two, three, two.

One, two, three.

Duck under. Three, two, three.

Nice.

Good job.

This one's good, baby.

That's what I'm talking about.

Let's get the rust off those legs.

Have us some kicks. All right.

Let's do this, Pat.

Nice wraps, Prince.

Let's see what you got.

One, two, three.

One,

two, three, two.

Nice move.

Circle.

Double two.

All right. Don't wait.

Don't wait.

Other side. Let's go.

Nice, huh?

Nice, nice.

Should have had man kicks.

Okay, we'll see.

Good job.

You like it like that, huh?

Arm bar.

Switch it.

Switch it.

Maybe another day, all right

What are you doing?

Oh, you're not getting the head.

Coming up.

Coming up.

Here we go.

Switching. Coming around.

Coming around.

Woo.

Oh.

How's it feel down here?

Want to run too?

I gotta go.

We're going for a pool tonight, right?

I need to lend you my man card.

No thanks, dipshit.

My wife gave mine back.

See you tonight.

Yeah, absolutely.

What's up, man?

Remember that fight shit my son was watching?

I'm on the case to bring it down.

Why are you telling me this?

You never talk about your cases. They're classified.

I may not survive this.

The shit's hardcore.

There's a series of fights.

You can quit between the fights, but not during one.

Either win or you die.

Is there any other way to bust it?

We've been trying.

This syndicate is powerful.

We haven't been able to discover who the leader is.

This is the only way to bring it down.

Supposedly a fighter gets to meet him if he wins all the fights.

Okay, so you win all the fights and you take him down.

It's not that simple.

Nobody's won all the fights.

But we think by infiltrating this competition as a fighter, we can finally

learn enough information to discover who he is.

Sounds risky.

Ryan, promise me, if something happens to me, you'll look after my family.

And you know I would.

I'd give my life for you.

Nothing's gonna happen.

You're shot.

So tell me, where do the fights take place?

Different locations.

Uh-huh.

And how much is bet on a series of fights?

Not sure.

It always fluctuates.

But it's in the hundreds of millions.

Your boss must be a wealthy man.

Don't know anything about him.

My wages are wired to my account.

That's all I know.

That's all I need to know.

And how much have you won?

You ask a lot of questions.

I have a question for you.

Why would a guy like you...

Respond to a posting for fighters to make money when the odds are against you

to win Usually the fighters are desperate You don't look desperate

By the way, I don't gamble

We've arrived.

You never told me your name.

No, I didn't.

Last question.

Any rules I should know about?

Just one.

Win.

Ugh!

When it takes off.

Hey Ryan.

What?

What's wrong?

I need to give you this.

What the fuck am I gonna do with this?

My husband is gone!

And for what?

Has anything changed?

Yeah. I wanted the case Patterson was working.

Hey, let me get back to you.

Your shirt is in the wind, son.

Sir? You've been with the department, what, 20 months?

You've already been hit with five excessive force complaints.

One of them causing your supervisor to suspend you.

That has nothing to do with what I'm... Hey, don't interrupt me.

First off, you're in no position to man a damn thing. You're still a lousy PPO.

We can terminate your employment right now.

Now sit down and let me tell you what we're up against.

About a year ago, we opened up an investigation into a gambling syndicate

that runs illegal fighter competitions.

The stuff on the internet.

Yeah, that junk.

There's fight clubs all over the country.

The only difference between this one and the fighters are dying.

And it's all streamed live over the web for millions of people to see and bet

on.

No difference in the cockfight I reckon.

What happened to Tony?

What went wrong?

We thought he could infiltrate the organization, help us crack the case,

but he wasn't strong enough.

Fights are more hardcore than he was prepared to deal with.

Why wasn't he being covered?

It's a one-man job, son.

They go to great lengths to cover the tracks, make these fights untraceable.

The fighters are carefully screened. They get a number. They're either called

or text.

They're picked up by a driver.

Never in the same location.

And the fights are never in the same location.

Who's the driver?

Doesn't matter.

She can't help us. Nor can the fighters.

We had to catch this son of a bitch in action.

How then?

Somebody's got to win all the fights.

How many?

Four votes.

And then?

Then supposedly...

The leader himself delivers a million dollars cash prize.

That's a lot of money.

Yeah, but nobody's won it yet.

And 30 men have died trying.

The fights get progressively more difficult.

We think it's fixed.

Let me see the fight.

I don't think he wanted to see that. Let me see the fight.

Sir.

Are you sure?

Look, I'm sorry about your friend, Tony.

He was damn good police.

He had a bright future.

But what I want to know is, why should I put you on this case?

What can you do that your buddy and the other trained men couldn't do and die

trying?

I have skills the others didn't.

And because I'm not afraid of dying.

That's not good enough. They ain't damn well good enough. I can win the fights.

You're a regular son of a bitch, ain't you, McGowan?

Maybe that's what I need for this case.

That's why I'm gonna put you on my unit.

Give you a crack at this thing.

And, McGowan, do yourself a favor.

Don't fuck that up.

Here's the file. That's everything we have on it.

In there, you'll find a number that passes some use to get to the driver.

It'll get you in the game.

After that, you're on your own.

Always have been.

Oh, is that true?

We'll be maintaining surveillance on your progress.

Good luck.

You can fly now.

Hello?

Meet me on the corner of DI and Valley View in 30 minutes.

Don't be late.

Nice. Woo!

That feels good. That's what I'm talking about.

You're Maria.

You're like family.

You're all I got.

My husband is gone.

And for what?

I'm gonna make this fucked up world a better place.

I'm gonna make a difference.

My friend's life will not be in vain.

What can I get you?

Water.

You the fighter?

Yeah.

I'm the driver.

Shut up this time.

Don't like tails.

I don't like games.

Had to be sure.

Stand up, please.

No weapons allowed.

You gonna go for both sides?

For money, drugs, or both?

Excuse me?

Everybody who gets in this car does it for the same reasons.

Got my own reasons.

Put it on.

I have nothing to hide.

That's a good check!

Thanks.

One down, three to go.

At least now I know what to expect.

Hardly.

How'd you end up in this job?

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies.

Inside.

oh

You going to the next fight?

Got in the car, didn't I? It doesn't get easier.

It's okay.

I'm not expecting that.

I have a remedy for you.

You'll never know how bad I'm hurt.

That's the idea.

Why help me?

I'm here to help the fighters out between fights.

It makes the fights better.

There's money all over the world on how far you get.

How far has anyone got?

I'll tell you when you get there.

How far?

Not far enough.

I will sustain any injury.

Take on any opponent.

I will conquer.

If I die, I will come back in spirit and finish these fights.

And bring down the sick motherfucker that is spreading the disease.

The disease that is slowly eating away at human life.

That makes people feel worthless.

The disease that makes me feel worthless.

Either way, I will destroy this evil.

If I save my life, I will win.

if I lose my life.

That's the only way you will live.

You killed my friend.

What are you talking about?

You killed a man in an alley a week ago.

I killed my own man.

And you'll be next.

It's time to ask God to forgive you.

One of the cuts is too deep.

Gotta tie it up.

I can do that.

You ever stitched?

Wish I can do more to help you.

Say that to all the fighters.

It's alright.

Learned a long time ago no one's ever gonna come to save you.

Not even God?

We'll see.

Can you tie me up?

You ready?

Ugh! Ugh!

We don't have much time.

I need to sleep.

How?

Fifteen minutes.

You okay?

We gotta go.

Murder on the schedule?

It's not murder.

This isn't a game for me.

Then why do you do it?

Anybody you want me to contact if you don't make it.

I have to think about that.

I'll believe in God if I survive these fights.

And if I don't survive, I guess it won't matter.

I need some water.

Okay.

Take care, man.

Jesus,

what happened to you, man?

Hey, you messed up.

Hey, you look familiar.

I'm nobody.

Hey, I know. You're the guy from the internet.

In those fights tonight.

Wow. That shit looks so real.

I hear it is.

Is it?

It's not, is it?

I love watching that stuff, man.

I hear the last fight is the most radical.

No one's ever survived so far, so... I wouldn't know, but that's what they say.

Hey, good luck tonight, man.

You want some company?

How old are you?

Old enough.

How old?

I don't need no fucking social worker.

Is there a problem?

Yeah, how old is she?

It ain't any of your fucking business.

Tell me how the fuck old she is.

The game is over.

Let it go.

Fuck off.

I want to talk to her alone.

Get lost for five minutes.

You got five minutes.

What's your name?

They call me... Your real name.

Stacy.

Listen, Stacy.

Get out of this shithole.

Do it now.

Get on a bus and go home.

Or go anywhere.

Just get help.

We have to go.

She'll spend it on drugs.

Yeah, maybe.

But I gave her a chance.

She'll never forget that.

I need to ask a favor.

You want out? I can do that.

Anytime before the next fight.

I haven't seen my dad since I was a teen.

I left home when my mom passed away.

I hated his guts.

Why?

I blamed him.

He treated her like shit.

But in the end...

It wasn't his fault.

He died of cancer.

Hatred destroyed me.

The fucked up thing is... I've become just like him.

He was always angry at the world.

I don't know your dad, but I have no doubt he's nothing like you.

You're one of a kind.

Ryan?

Wow.

Please cancel.

My word, Ryan.

What's happened to you?

You need help.

Can't stay long.

Okay.

Sit down, please.

So, how you been son?

Alright.

Still trying to save the world.

Ryan, what are you doing here?

I mean...

Why now?

In the middle of the night?

After all these years?

I just wanted

to... I just wanted to say that I'm...

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for not being a good son.

And that I love you.

I blamed you for Mom's death.

It wasn't your fault.

I realize that now.

I gotta go.

I may not see you again.

I want to say goodbye just in case. What?

I can't talk about it, Dad.

You should walk away.

Why are you trying to help me?

You work for these guys.

That's a lot of money to be made.

Even more for me if you win.

But it's rigged.

You can't win the money they promised.

No one wins the final fight.

Never.

Get out now.

Whatever it is you're fighting for, it's not worth it.

Nothing's worth it.

No.

But there is something that's worth it.

When you enter to the right, there's some gear.

It's part of the fight.

One last thing.

I like to hedge my bets.

But you could lose your job.

Or worse.

I'm a private contractor.

I can find a new job.

But this job, why are you doing it?

You never answered me.

I could say money.

There's no reason good enough.

Come on!

It's burning, man.

It's burning.

Give it to him.

Congratulations.

You've accomplished what no one else has.

Take it. It's yours.

Didn't fight for the money.

How'd you do it then?

To make a difference.

Look out.

It's all over the outside.

It was dangerous for you to stay here.

Since when am I afraid of risk?

I guess I bet on the right fighter.

You're one of them.

Should have known.

It's better that you didn't.

Need a ride?

Sure.

But, um... I'll drive this time.

I'll take you where you need to go.
