My mother took me to fist blood for my 15th birthday when I was a kid and I loved that film. It was one of those movies that are etched in your memory and bring a bit of nostalgia every time I think of it. Many times sequels do not stand up to the original films that have that effect on you, but this film did not let me down. I went with my son for a night out to celebrate his 21st birthday and we both enjoyed it. I leaned over right before he had that chat with the pimp at his truck and said "I hope they don't hold back" and we both looked at each other after that scene and said excitedly, Nope. at the same time. Too many film over think the "political" or cultural aspects of the day and come off as being contrived. This movie displays the rage that anyone would feel inside if this were to happen to their family in a way that makes you feel satisfied.
