Two women duking it out in the Ultimate Fighting Championship was deemed laughable to even consider years ago, but at UFC 157 the crowd was buzzing as Liz Carmouche nearly choked out the untouchable Ronda Rousey before Rousey came back with her devastating arm-bar.

Quite possibly the most important women’s fight when it comes to mixed martial arts needed a strong showing as it main-evented a highly anticipated UFC card. Going into the fight it seemed a completely mismatch as Rousey is an undefeated Olympic gold medalist that defeats every opponent the exact same way even though opponents are aware of the arm-bar. Yet Carmouche put a serious scare into the UFC bantamweight women’s champion nearly getting her to tap out in the first few minutes of the fight. However, Rousey was able to fight through and once she got Carmouche to the ground there was no stopping the eventual submission victory.

The semi-main event could have easily been considered a main event fight as Lyto Machida took on Dan Henderson. Henderson was looking to deliver his nasty knockout power on Machida, but the evasive style of Machida frustrated Henderson and in the end was the slight difference in the fight as Machida walked away with a split decision victory. If Henderson won he was easily going to get his title shot back against Jon Jones, but Machida winning just keeps both away from a title shot due to Jones already defeating Machida.

Urijah Faber continued to impress in the bantamweight division winning convincingly over Ivan Menjivar when Faber locked in a choke while Menjivar was standing, shades of Matt Hughes when he defeated Frank Trigg. Faber again showed that he is one of the best in his division and despite his failures in title matches can not be counted out yet as a worthy contender down the line. This event also saw a major setback in the career of Josh Koscheck as he lost in the first round to Robbie Lawler out of nowhere. Koscheck was winning the fight with his wrestling, but the power of Lawler became too much for him.

Exciting card overall, the big fights delivered, the extra features are lacking this time around on the DVD. It’s one of those if you missed it you should see it, but if you saw it it’s probably only desirable if you want the historic women’s fight or some of favourite fighters.

The two actors that crashed weddings reunite in a different movie as they attempt to change their lives trying to get a job at the prestigious Internet company,  Google, in The Internship.

Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn play two salesmen, Nick and Billy, who have been booted from their jobs as watch salesmen due to the times catching up on them. With no other skills or ways to get a high-paying job, they decide to take on an internship at Google.

While their lack of computer knowledge and absolute ridiculous answers clearly should not  even get them an internship, their charismatic charm and life experiences are unique compared to the 20-something years old competing.

If you enjoyed the back-and-forth conversations Vaughn and Wilson had in Wedding Crashers you will not be disappointed as there are many scenes with the two bouncing off each other with funny, zany and insightful humour. The way they react is about the same as you’d expect they would in Wedding Crashers, Vaughn with the over-the-top fast-paced lines with Wilson coming back with witty sarcasm.

The main focus of the flick is the generation gap between the two heroes and the group they are forced to be with. They get the stereotypical nerd, loner, foreigner, and sexually charged girl with no experience. At first it seems like there is no way they can co-exist, but eventually they start to teach other how to get the group flowing with synergy.

Sex, alcohol, and some studying on the side.

Overall it’s a fun time, not the greatest comedy and not as raunchy or vulgar as their previous film. The way everything comes together is slightly predictable. However, Wilson and Vaughn with a young cast and special appearances along the way by Will Ferrell, John Goodman, and others, make it well worth the price of admission. It can be insane humour one moment and then a realistic look at how young adults and adults are battling in society against each other.  Right now there’s nothing funnier in theatres.
