Synopsis:

An idealistic woman is kidnapped and forced to compete in an underground fight ring. Every night is a fight for her life as she plans to overthrow her captors and save the lives of many others doomed to the same endless cycle.


Well, this film certainly is “unchained;” unchained from a decent script, production value, or any sense of creativity or subtlety.

Hell, at one point, our lead character, Aella, even asks her captor “How does any of this make any sense?”

Built around fortune-cookie style remembrances of quadi-profound fatherly advice, delivered by Eric Roberts in the style of a new-age self-help guru rather than a father, and with the majority of the film being nothing more than a series of training and fight montages featuring attractive women under duress (and often barely dressed) beating each other, Unchained is…

…well, Unchained is nothing more than 80s-style “action” cheese, without any sense of self-awareness of how unremarkable it truly is. Sure, it tries to be profound in some sort of weird, Jigsaw kind of motivational way, but in the end, it’s just non-sensical.

Unchained is now available on Digital.

Unchained stars Mair Mulroney, Taya Valkyrie, Eric Roberts, Maricris Lapaix, Roni Weissman, Kasarlina Wang, Svetlana Constantine, and Larry L Andrews.
