Call a movie Fighting, you expect action. Only include shots of Channing Tatum shirtless in the trailer, you expect to see half-naked Tatum. Fighting doesn't deliver either.

There's a better movie inside it struggling to get out.

Fighting consistently feels like a patchwork of better movies without their excitement or rooting interest in character.

the protagonist happens to be played by an actor who looks more like a fashion model than tough street fighter

There's an effective, unstylized authenticity to those fights. A life or death mania, which enhanced the film's credibility.

There's something interesting in this film and that's the reality it brings to its subject matter. Scenes seem real. And that's a lot to do with the performances. They're all terrific. But there's the reality of New York too, there's grit here.

Fighting arrives fully charged by the charisma of its star, Channing Tatum.

Yes, both Channing Tatum and Zulay Henao... have careers for their looks alone, and they'd have better careers delivering pizza than delivering dialogue.

The tell-it-as-it-is title hardly indicates anything out of the ordinary, but this bare-knuckle boxing flick is put together with more love than you'd expect.

Channing Tatum (GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra) is crazy beautiful, and perfectly cast as a slow, troubled young man.
