[Twinkletoes: 3.0]

Twinkletoes says: 'If I tried to give you a plot overview of this film it would probably take longer than the film's 99 minute running time. Which I think might make the film a simple time machine. Note to Gino, add that to the simple machines list right after the funnel and the internal combustion engine. Anyway, it has something to do with a principled martial arts instructor, a drunk female lawyer, a cop, a movie star, about 15 other things and the shady busines of mixed martial arts fighting. Not a bad film but it sort of feels like the story was a result of someone daring David Mamet to make a film about mixed martial arts and he decided to fart out a story just to piss them off.'
