'Never Back Down' Sean Farris, "The next Tom Cruise?"
Description :
Never Back Down
Set against the action-packed world of mixed martial arts, Never Back Down is the story of Jake Tyler (Sean Faris), a tough kid with a big heart, who has to learn that in life, everyone has their fight.
Orlando, Florida may as well be the moon for Iowa-native Jake with its ten-million dollar mansions set ten feet apart. The privileged teenagers of this American Dream on steroids want for nothing; they zoom around upscale neighborhoods in expensive cars, wearing bikinis and flip-flops, affecting the jaded ennui of kids with too much, too soon. Life is one big party for them.
Jake was a star athlete on the football team back home, but in this new city he is an outsider. Considered "the new kid" with his taciturn attitude and lumberjack attire, Jake's not winning friends anytime soon, and that's OK with him. Quiet and withdrawn, he's silently suffering from the recent loss of his father. It's not long, however, before Jake's troubled past re-emerges when a clip of a spectacular football-field fist fight from Iowa is forwarded around his new school.
Things take a turn when he meets Baja (Amber Heard) in class. She's beautiful—and smarter than she lets on. At her invitation, Jake goes to a party where he is unwittingly pulled into a fight with a bully named Ryan McCarthy (Cam Gigandet). He is defeated and humiliated in the fight and subsequently wary of everyone, especially Baja, who may have set him up. But it's Jake's enthusiastic, good-hearted classmate Max (Evan Peters), who sees a champion in Jake. He tells Jake about the sport known as mixed martial arts (MMA) and invites him to meet with his coach, Jean Roqua (Djimon Hounsou).
It is immediately apparent to Jake that MMA is not street fighting, but rather an art form he's determined to master. Roqua will take Jake under his wing, but it is up to Jake to find the patience, discipline and motivation to succeed. For Jake, there is much more at stake than mere victory. His decision will not just settle a score; it will define who he is.

i know sean faris in real life he is my best friends cousin
He is definitely the next "Tom Cruise"...When I saw him, I knew it. I am writing a screen play and it will star "Sean Faris"....He is exceptional, especially for a new-comer.
i look like this dude my friends have told me that
he looks like tom cruise when i first saw em i was like, is that him?
he looks like joe lauzon
i think he kinda looks like wentworth miller... not tom cruise!
macogal22 - I can see the wentworth miller comparison, but i think that is mostly because of the haircut, whereas, if you watch this movie, he seems to even have some of Tom's mannerisms. Very Top Gunish in some parts. I am not saying that this was done on purpose, but that was just something that stood out in the film to me. But I can see where you are coming from.
