Reviews
The Fight has received a mix of reviews, garnering a 6.7/10 rating on IMDb, indicating a generally favorable reception from viewers. Critics have praised its authentic depiction of the boxing scene, with one review from 'Variety' noting, "The raw energy of the boxing matches is only rivaled by the poignant storytelling surrounding the protagonist's life outside the ring." However, some viewers have found fault with its pacing, with 'Rotten Tomatoes' remarking, "While the film shines in its emotional moments, it sometimes drags in its narrative, losing momentum toward the middle." The character development has also drawn attention, with 'Metacritic' stating, "The performances are heartfelt, yet some characters lack depth, which may leave audiences wanting more." Despite some criticisms, the movie is celebrated for its realistic fight choreography and heartfelt performances, especially from the lead, whose determination resonates well with viewers.
