Blood and Bone

Blood and Bone (2009) is a bare-knuckle martial-arts action film you can watch online on iFILM. Fresh out of prison, a quiet drifter named Isaiah Bone walks straight into the underground fight scene in the back alleys of Los Angeles.

He isn't swinging for the money. Bone made a promise to a friend who died behind bars, and every brawl is a step toward James, the ruthless crime boss played by Eamonn Walker who runs the city's fighters and owns every bet placed on them. The further Bone climbs through the circuit, the closer he gets to the man he came for.

Michael Jai White carries the lead, and the production leans on his real martial-arts skill, staging full-contact fights with clean, readable choreography instead of choppy editing. Look for MMA names like Kimbo Slice and Gina Carano in supporting bouts. It's a lean, no-frills beatdown picture, exactly what genre fans tired of shaky-cam action are after.
