Such Great Heights: A Documentary "That’s the interesting aspect of this film — you really see the human side. You develop this bond with Jon Fitch. A lot of MMA fans are going to know already what happened (at UFC 87), but because we’re appealing to such a broad audience with this film, when they see the fight and the aftermath, it’s a pretty emotional time in the movie." If reactions from test audiences are any indication, the film has tremendous promise for crossover appeal by opening up a lot of eyes and ears to the world of MMA... After several test screenings in New York, audiences — the good majority of which had never seen an MMA fight — "were blown away. They were blown away. It was a real eye-opener for them." HT: mmamania
