Blake Howard 2UE That Movie Show Behind the self-aggrandising, gangster rap style and human meat tenderising is Dawg Fight's quandary: controlled violence seems to make this community better. Rated: 3.5/5 May 25, 2015 Full Review Rene Rodriguez Miami Herald From the outside, at first glance, it looks like a horror show: young men inside a small ring pummeling each other in the backyard of a private home in West Perrine, bare-knuckled and often bleeding. Rated: 3.5/4 Mar 13, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member This movie taught me a couple things: not all warriors wear armor and not all combat is savage. Though I squinted just a couple times, I stay tuned for the bold characters and the rich storyline. I appreciate that this movie came full circle. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Just all round absolutely terrible. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a movie about street fight. I found it to be very disturbing. People fighting like animals. It makes me sick to my stomach. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review charlie l An interesting insight into the world of backyard fighting. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Brutal and tragic film given the sad state of many of the people, yet a very excellently told story. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Some times the difference between a good and a great documentary is the film maker getting lucky. There are good story lines and it will defiantly hold you attention. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
