We Got This Covered

Brutal throwback thriller 'Little Dixie' has no airs or graces about what it is or what it wants to be, and that's exactly why it hits the spot.

Rated: 3/5

Film Inquiry

Little Dixie has little moments of thrill amid a sufficient yet standard crime story

Cinemalogue

Some gritty visual flourishes and mild sociopolitical intrigue can’t overcome the assembly-line plotting. But at least our hero is always impeccably dressed.

Little Dixie is as efficient, gritty and messy at its lead character, which is a good thing, since no one wants their B-movies to look as polished as their A-list fare.

Rated: C+

Common Sense Media

Although most of this crime drama is so familiar as to be tired, the filmmakers nonetheless take a little extra time to develop a strange, gritty atmosphere that elevates the movie above the average.

Rated: 3/5

Ready Steady Cut

Little Dixie is an action thriller from writer-director – and frequent Grillo collaborator – John Swab, who loves his lead so much that he forgets to remotely imperil him throughout the entire movie.

Rated: 2.5/5

I've sat through some rubbish films in my time & sadly this one is right up there with them. Frank Grillo is a decent actor but there wasn't a lot of acting in this film. It was pretty much a killing spree with lots of people getting popped. It was so boring that I switched off before the ending & googled it just out of curiosity.

I’m going to go against the grain here and say that I loved it. Excellent characterisation of minor characters, good music score, subtle humour, tight writing. All in all a real step above the usual. Frank Grillo did good. I’d even watch it again.

We all know that Frank Grillo mainly acts in B-movies and this one is no exception. But one needs to say that the script isn't so bad and the action scenes are quite decent. But one thing, which is absolutely unacceptable, is the fact that after chopping off a man's head with a chainsaw, with the whole bathroom covered in blood, and later on countless hand to hand shootouts, some wrestling and boxing with his opponents, etc., there is only one tiny speck of blood on his otherwise clean shirt. Pleaaaaaaase!! That is definitely the director's fault as he surely thought that all spectators are morons. 3 1/2 of 10 points.

Just ridiculous in the sense of 1) how come drug dealers are always surprised when the SWAT team comes through the door - don't they have lookouts? 2) Frank goes to the senators house to kill him, kills all his people and then takes his head. So, no cameras then? Franks not worried about finger prints or his dna? On top of that he puts a fresh head in a leather bag which surprise, surprise drips blood! Derrrr uses carrier bag after he kills an innocent. Bloody rubbish. Stupid childish mistakes detract from the story
