 Comedy Central: Movies - Kid Galahad - Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Modern audiences will likely snicker at many of the turns of the plot, which run perilously close to cliché, and at the character of Kid Galahad himself, who, especially in Wayne Morris' uninspired performance, comes across as a stereotypical goodhearted lunkhead.
Fortunately, Galahad has director Michael Curtiz at the helm, and while this is far from his best work, he does manage to treat the proceedings with just enough flair to make the triter moments a bit more palatable.
Bette Davis doesn't have the kind of role that is really up to her talents, but she still turns in a powerful performance, using those famous eyes of hers to speak volumes.

 TIME.com: The New Pictures -- Feb. 14, 1938 -- Page 1
When Kid Galahad had run its course, Don't Pull Your Punches was taken off the shelf, dusted off, released under its third title, The Kid Comes Back.
Less realistic than Kid Galahad, which focused on the chicanery of the fight racket, The Kid Comes Back concerns itself with an aging trial horse of the ring (Barton MacLane), whose sole remaining barrier to the championship is his own protégé (Actor Morris).
In setting the stage for the old trial horse to have his day at last, the story permits itself a few trenchant observations about heavyweight champions who retire to Connecticut farms to read Shakespeare, titled Hollywood hangers-on, and wrestlers—who, in the gruff MacLane lingo, are nothing but a lot of humpty dumpties.
