00:00The year is 2045 and a large crowd has gathered around an arena to watch a battle between two
00:05great fighters. There are only three minutes left in the round and Novak is at a disadvantage in
00:10that fight because Calypso is armed with a pickaxe. His only chance of survival is to perform an
00:14evasive maneuver and slowly approach his opponent to strike him. While the crowd is euphoric,
00:20Novak concentrates on defeating his enemy and attacks him with synchronized punches and kicks.
00:24After taking down his enemy, Novak picks up the pickaxe to eliminate him,
00:28as he needs to win the duel to regain his freedom. However, just as the prisoner begins to believe
00:34that he is free, another opponent appears in the arena and strikes him with her sword.
00:38After making a deep cut in Novak's abdomen, Qt Pie starts laughing as her enemy's organs jump out.
00:44Finally, the woman hits Novak's neck and eliminates the prisoner once and for all.
00:49Every week, a new group of gladiators fights for their freedom and the public has the chance to
00:54bet on who they think will win. After serving 10 years of a 200-year sentence,
00:58Luke Bender is interviewed by a pair of recruiters who ask him if he considers himself rehabilitated.
01:03However, Luke refuses to play along and says that he is not fit to live in society. By saying this,
01:09he is automatically excluded from the list of possible participants in the arena and taken back
01:14to his cell. Then Arturo Perez enters the room and, after serving only 15 years of his life sentence,
01:19he claims to consider himself rehabilitated, even after being found guilty of eliminating 57 victims.
01:25So the recruiters offer the prisoner a chance to regain his freedom and Arturo signs up to take part in the arena.
01:32That night, Luke stares at the photo of his fiancée and begins to rethink the offer made by the recruiters,
01:37as this is his only chance to see Ariana again.
01:40The following week, Arturo and nine other prisoners from a state prison prepared to face the arena wars
01:45in an attempt to win their freedom. The program features two presenters, Samson and Moses,
01:50who introduce the audience to this edition's gladiators. Unlike ordinary prisoners, the seven gladiators,
01:56who are part of the most dangerous group of criminals in the country, use special outfits and weapons to help
02:01them during the duel. Among them are Calypso and Cutie Pie, who are the oldest members of the team,
02:06having been part of the arena since the start of the season. When he learns that he will be facing criminals
02:11who have come straight from a maximum security prison, Arturo begins to worry, because he knows that they are
02:16even more insane than his comrades. Minutes before entering the ring, Steve is in despair and Arturo
02:22tries to calm him down. He tells him that he shouldn't be there, because he's been wrongly
02:26imprisoned. However, Arturo knows that he needs to calm down if he wants to get out of that arena
02:31alive and advises the young man to focus on the fight. However, before he even has the chance to
02:37enter the ring, Steve is hit by flames coming from the ceiling and is completely eliminated.
02:41Then the doors open and Nero enters the arena. At that moment, Arturo orders everyone to stay
02:47together, because they know that their chance of survival will increase if they work as a team.
02:51However, some prisoners cower in the presence of the enemy and try to escape, but end up becoming
02:56the first to be eliminated. Before entering the arena, the participants are given an injection and
03:01a bomb is implanted in their heads. If they break the rules, the bomb is triggered. When they try to
03:06escape, the cowards act against the rules and listen to a 10-second countdown.
03:10At the end of this period, the bomb explodes and they are eliminated. After separating into pairs,
03:16the prisoners set out to attack Nero, but the man is armed with his blades and hits his opponents in
03:21the body. When he sees his allies on the ground, Arturo arranges a joint attack with Goldie and
03:26together they manage to defeat Nero. As soon as the man collapses, Arturo steals one of his daggers
03:32and goes after the other gladiators. However, when Goldie bends down to pick up the blade,
03:37he discovers that Nero is still alive and ends up being eliminated by him. Hearing the screams
03:42from the audience, Arturo soon realizes that Nero is alive and hides so that he can carry out a
03:47surprise attack. However, just as the arsonist is about to eliminate his opponent, Counter-Strike
03:52appears and challenges him to a battle. After exchanging a few kicks with him, Arturo is thrown
03:57into the wall and ends up being captured by Meatwagon. With each addition, the participants in the arena
04:02wars are eliminated more quickly by the gladiators, which has caused a drop in ratings. What's more,
04:08when they hear the criminal records of the prisoners, the public gives up on rooting for
04:12them to win and this has had an impact on the volume of bets. So the show's organizers decide
04:17to try something new and try to find a heroic figure to take part in the competition. Because
04:21of his background and criminal record, Luke is chosen to play the role. After introducing himself,
04:27Desmond, CEO of Clydesdale Industries, orders his security guards to test the candidate's
04:32physical abilities. When attacked, Luke immediately strikes back at his opponents and manages to
04:37immobilize two trained men with ease. At that moment, Desmond realizes that Luke is a great
04:42candidate to take part in the arena wars and decides to classify him against his will. The
04:47prisoner is a decorated marine who was blamed by a superior officer and ended up being sentenced to
04:52serve 200 years in prison. Despite being unjustly imprisoned, Luke refuses to take part in the
04:57competition, but Desmond says he doesn't have many options, since the courts have agreed
05:02to increase his sentence to lethal injection. As a result, the marine has only two options,
05:07take part in the arena to have a chance of regaining his freedom and a clean slate,
05:11or accept his elimination, which will take place over the next few weeks. As this is the only way
05:16to see his fiancée again, Luke agrees to take part in the competition and, the following week,
05:22he joins the other nine prisoners who will fight alongside him. On his way to the arena wars
05:26headquarters, the marine meets Khan, a seller of illicit substances who tries to befriend him.
05:32While the prisoners undergo physical assessments and examinations, the gladiators are prepared for
05:36the next battle. After being attacked by Arturo and Goldie, Nero is seriously injured and taken to
05:42the infirmary, where he receives an application of a substance developed by Dr. Harada. The drug was
05:47developed with the aim of keeping the gladiators in line and ensuring that they obey the orders of their
05:52superiors. The next morning, a few hours before the show starts, Samson and Moses reveal that
05:57something unprecedented will happen that night, because for the first time in the history of
06:02arena wars, an innocent contestant will take part in the battle. When they discover that Luke Bender
06:07is an ex-marine and has been wrongly imprisoned, Khan and the other prisoners ask why he has been sent
06:12to the penitentiary and the man reveals that he has taken the blame for an attempted crime by his
06:16superior. After a colonel close to the president tried to eliminate him, Luke had to be arrested
06:21instead and all he asked for in return was the safety of his fiancée and father-in-law.
06:26That night, the marine will enter the arena alongside Billy Chambers, a female MMA champion
06:31who is also determined to get out of that place. When the doors open and the team enters the arena,
06:36Luke soon smells gas coming from the ceiling and Paris is knocked out by the fire. Just then,
06:41Nero appears and the group spreads out to attack the gladiator. After Kyoshi is hit by the blade,
06:47Billy enters the scene and manages to disarm him with a few kicks.
06:50The prisoners then manage to immobilize him and take it in turns to hit their opponent.
06:54During the fight, Nero hits Gideon on the head and everyone moves away for fear of becoming the
06:59next victim. Just then, Luke enters the scene and knocks down the cameraman who was disturbing the
07:04battle. When Nero is challenged to a duel, he doesn't think twice about attacking his opponent,
07:09but ends up being easily knocked down. When his enemy is on the ground, Luke approaches him and
07:14removes his mask, but his moral sense won't allow him to eliminate him. Seeing his ally's hesitation,
07:20Jones decides to finish the job and steps on Nero's neck. The team then heads to the second
07:25arena and encounters Counter-Strike, who captures Khan and holds him by the neck.
07:29When he notices that a member of his team is in danger, Luke immediately strikes the enemy,
07:34but the gladiator is wearing a suit that increases his strength and manages to get rid of everyone who
07:38tries to get close to him. Seeing the monster walking towards her, Alice throws her wounded colleague
07:43on top of him to distract him and Counter-Strike pierces Kiyoshi's abdomen with his arm. After this
07:49insane attack, the gladiator goes after Alice and breaks the woman's neck with his bare hands.
07:54Just then, Luke gets up and strikes Counter-Strike, leaving him completely bewildered. Khan then takes
08:00the opportunity to strike the enemy with the blade he stole from Nero. In this way, the prisoner manages
08:05to eliminate him and Luke tries to take over leadership of the team. As he is the most experienced in
08:10battle, he believes that if the team works together they will all make it out alive, but Jones refuses
08:15to accept him as leader, as he considers that the marines showed weakness when he refused to
08:20eliminate Nero. At this point, the prisoner tries to provoke him by saying that Luke was weak to accept
08:25being unjustly imprisoned, but he doesn't believe it, as he considers that he has made a sacrifice for
08:30national security. After saying all the words that had been stuck in his throat, Jones walks away and
08:36decides to go on alone to the next stage, but before he advances to the third arena he
08:40is hit by Meatwagon, the gladiator was waiting for his victims by the door and eliminated Jones
08:45straight away to intimidate the other participants. At this point, Luke once again puts himself forward
08:50as team leader and asks if his allies are with him. Hearing the crowd cheer, the inmates decide to join
08:56the marine to form a single team, as they all know that this is the best chance each of them has of
09:00surviving. As soon as the group approaches, Meatwagon tries to take them all out with his axe, but ends up
09:06being knocked down when Luke and his men join forces to hit him. After stealing the gladiator's axe,
09:11Minty eliminates him with a fatal blow and Luke takes advantage of this victory to reaffirm the
09:16public support. Later, while preparing the body of one of the eliminated gladiators for cremation,
09:22Dr. Harada talks to Domino and laments the fact that the woman has lost all her cunning and precision
09:27with a single injection. Before the start of the fourth round, the competitors are entitled to a rest
09:32break, as they are approaching the halfway point. As Luke and his colleagues prepare to advance in
09:36the competition, Boggs appears and reveals that Belladonna wants to see them. At this point,
09:42the team is directed to the VIP area and Boggs advises them to mingle with the other guests.
09:47After managing to throw off all the prisoners taking part in arena wars, Belladonna has a private
09:52conversation with Luke and says that he is the favorite to win the show. During the conversation,
09:56the businessman comments on a promising opportunity that has arisen and asks Luke to meet him in the
10:01green room later if he is interested in finding out more. However, when the Marine enters the room,
10:07he ends up being surrounded by armed security guards and is knocked down by Domino. Belladonna
10:11then appears and reveals that his inbox is full of sponsors thanks to Luke's participation.
10:16The TV network where the show Arena Mortal airs is planning to bring forward next week's episode and
10:21make a spinoff centered on the Marine. However, Luke immediately refuses to be a part of it,
10:26so Belladonna shows him the photo of his fiancé and father-in-law's grave.
10:30According to the businessman, the two lost their lives five years ago, on Christmas Day,
10:35when they were hit by a drunk driver and didn't survive. Upon receiving this news,
10:40Luke becomes furious and loses control, so one of Belladonna's security guards knocks him out.
10:45Hours later, the Marine is found by Khan and Minty, who take him to the infirmary for medical
10:50attention. Boggs then appears and asks what happened. After being pressured to tell the truth,
10:55Luke tells him about the spinoff and reveals that his father-in-law and his fiancé have been
10:59eliminated. At this point, Billy and her colleagues come together to try to console their companion
11:04and Luke is motivated by his desire for revenge. During all the years he was in prison, the only
11:10thing that kept him there was the promise that his father-in-law and his fiancé would be safe.
11:14But five years ago, when they perished, no one had the decency to break the news to the Marine,
11:19so now he's determined to get revenge. That night, Belladonna pays Samson a visit and orders the man
11:25to continue the show, no matter what. Upon hearing this, the presenter realizes that something out
11:30of the ordinary is about to happen and begins to get apprehensive. As usual, Domino is in charge of
11:35injecting the gladiators and her superiors order her not to forget to inject herself as well.
11:40However, instead of following his orders, the woman only pretends to have applied the substance to her
11:45neck, as she is gradually regaining consciousness. When the show begins, Luke and his allies enter the
11:51stage and are greeted with great joy by the audience, who are excited to see the grand final.
11:56A few additions ago, no prisoner managed to survive the arena, but now the audience is confident that
12:01the Marine and his team have a good chance of making it out alive. Listening to the crowd,
12:06Billie reveals that the cheering made her miss the ring and all the adrenaline she felt during the
12:10fights. Suddenly, Holly Days shows up to interview Luke and asks him how he's feeling about the
12:15confrontation that's about to take place. The Marine then thanks the show's producers for the
12:20opportunity and says he's there to fight for the public. As soon as Holly leaves the arena,
12:25Master Blaster appears with a chainsaw and Luke orders his allies to spread out around him.
12:30The team's aim is to confuse him and set up an ambush to attack the monster from behind.
12:34While the gladiator tries to hit his enemies with the chainsaw, the other team members who are
12:39out of sight strike him. After Master Blaster manages to eliminate one of the members of his team,
12:44Luke decides to take a chance and approaches him to disarm him. At this point, Billie attacks her
12:49opponent with a series of punches, while Khan grabs the chainsaw to cut him in half.
12:54Meanwhile, Minty is keeping company with Carl, who was seriously wounded in the stomach during the
12:59battle, and is trying to give his friend some comfort in his last moments of life.
13:03Noticing that Minty is visibly shaken, Luke tries to encourage him to keep going,
13:07as they are getting closer and closer to getting out of that hell. Soon after, the doors open and a
13:12monster dressed as a clown appears. The creature is carrying a baseball bat full of spikes and shows
13:18great fighting skills. After knocking out some of his opponents, Mr. Smiles is challenged to a duel
13:23by Luke and the Marine manages to knock him out with a kick. When she sees her enemy on the ground,
13:29Billie gets up and, after throwing a few punches, she picks up the baseball bat to knock him out.
13:34Watching this excellent teamwork, the spectators stood up to applaud them and Billie continued the
13:38attack. The MMA fighter is furious at having been injured during the fight and takes all her anger
13:43out on Mr. Smiles. However, when he realizes that the gladiator has already been eliminated,
13:49Luke tries to calm her down and hands the chainsaw to Khan, because they need to get this over with.
13:53A few years ago, Boggs also took part in Arena Wars and managed to survive. After that, he won his
13:59freedom and was hired to work behind the scenes on the show. Having been in that ring before,
14:04he knows how hard it is to survive and he's rooting for the prisoners to win.
14:08When he meets Calypso, Khan attacks him with his chainsaw, but ends up being knocked down.
14:12The same happened to Billie, who didn't even have the chance to get close enough to the gladiator
14:17to hit him with her punches. In an attempt to avenge what they did to Carl, Minty jumps on his
14:22opponent's back, but can't hold him off for long. After freeing himself from the blow to the neck,
14:27Calypso is about to eliminate the prisoner with his pickaxe, but is stopped by Luke,
14:31who manages to grab his arm. Unlike the gladiators the team has faced before, Calypso is a veteran and
14:37has remained undefeated in the arena since the previous season. While Khan tries to take him down and
14:42fails miserably, Billie strikes her enemy in the back and manages to take him down.
14:47At this point, everyone joins in to punch and kick Calypso, but the attack is interrupted by
14:52the arrival of Cutie Pie, who strikes Luke with her sword. Seeing his friend wounded,
14:56Khan immediately rushes to help him and Billie becomes the next target.
15:00The gladiator hits her opponent's wound and, after knocking her down, goes after Minty.
15:05When he realizes that Luke is suffering from the injuries to his back, Khan hands him some pills to
15:10help him endure the severe pain and the Marine waits a few seconds for the substance to take
15:14effect. After being anesthetized, Luke gets up and holds Calypso so that Billie has a chance to take
15:20the pickaxe. Just then, the man is hit once again and can't stay on his feet. Seeing her sparring
15:25partner being defeated, Cutie Pie tries to eliminate Luke with her sword, but the man blocks her blows and
15:31then steals the gladiator's weapon. After cornering his enemy in the wall, Luke hits her with her own
15:36sword and the woman starts begging for her life. At this point, Belladonna realizes that something is
15:41wrong, because the substance that is injected into the gladiator's necks should turn them into
15:46beasts that only follow the orders of their superiors. Not understanding what's going on,
15:50the businessman asks if Domino has taken her injection and the woman says yes. However,
15:56when one of the security guards asks for a blood sample, the woman hesitates and her cover is blown.
16:01Domino immediately grabs her gun to eliminate the security guard and take Belladonna hostage.
16:05However, the businessman manages to steal the pistol from Domino's hands and says that if it hadn't been
16:11for him, she would have lost her life in the arena. Before being arrested, the woman was a sniper for
16:16hire, so instead of wasting her talents, Belladonna decides to transfer her back to the arena.
16:22Hearing Cutie Pie cry, Luke decides to give her a chance to explain herself and discovers that none of
16:27the gladiators are in that arena of their own free will. The truth is that the organizers use
16:32substances developed by Dr. Harada to force the criminals to obey, and in this way they manage
16:36to control them. Just then, Belladonna enters the ring and eliminates Cutie Pie with one shot.
16:42To make sure Luke follows his orders, he takes Boggs hostage and the Marine reminds the man that there
16:47are thousands of people watching the show at that moment. While the businessman makes a speech
16:51explaining why he sponsored that sick game to try to clear himself of future charges,
16:56Billy takes Master Blaster's chainsaw and cuts his body in half.
16:59After being rescued by the prisoners, Boggs uninstalls the chips that have been implanted
17:04in their heads so that they can regain their freedom. Now that the show has come to an end,
17:08Boggs leads the team out and the audience is even more eager to watch the next episode,
17:13because no one was expecting that plot twist. So what did you think of this movie?
