There’s a peculiar charm to films that seem old and new at the same time, as though they’re straddling two eras, holding fast to the grit of the past while teasing something fresh out of the well-worn. Day of the Fight sits squarely in this peculiar middle, a boxing movie that doesn’t try to dodge…
Sometimes, a movie doesn’t quite let you settle in your seat. It grips, jostles, and leaves you a little unsure of where you stand by the time the credits roll.
