Reviews

Boston Globe -
Fighting has real grit and excellent acting. In other words, there is gold in that dirt.

The A.V. Club -
Fighting doesn’t break new ground so much as animate B-movie types, but New York movies this gritty and flavorful don't come along very often.

|
Chicago Sun-Times -
I like the way the personalities are allowed to upstage the plot in Fighting, a routine three-act fight story that creates uncommonly interesting characters.

|
Premiere -
Fighting is a fun, frank and faithful homage to simple inner-city drama.

The Hollywood Reporter -
In Channing Tatum, who also starred in "Saints," the film has a good-looking, magnetic hunk to draw a crowd. Terrence Howard lends the pedigree of great screen acting, and Zulay Henao adds charm and glamour.
