Arena stands firmly in the realm of rental-only. Still though, I suppose it was worth seeing once especially with a cost effective way of renting movies like Blockbuster Movie Pass. It gives me DVD’s, Blurays and video games by mail, with the in-store exchanges option (if they’re really bad), plus streaming and 20 movie channels. Pretty good for $10 a month. To make it even better I love telling people who call into my work (DISH Network) that they can get 12 months of Blockbuster Movie Pass completely free when they sign up.

You hit it on the head all of my problems with modern B-movies. They’re all too self aware for their own good.

@Swarez,

Your explanation still sounds like a remake to me.

Just shares the same name and shitty concept.

There’s so much charm in the 1989 one, but this one, like most B-Movies now looks too sleek and clean while. They take themselves too seriously as well.

This smells like The Condemned, Death Race 2, The Tournament, Death Race and Gamer.
