Critic Reviews
-
Aaron Hillis, Village Voice
With a background in television and music videos, director Carlos Moreno's feature debut is mighty shallow. Its bloodshed carries little weight; the sporadic humor is cheap and casually racist.
-
Robert Koehler, Variety
Resembles a Tony Scott movie without any of his intelligence and cinematic invention.
-
Matthew Nestel, Boxoffice Magazine
It's not rattling the genre.
-
Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru
A dark crime thriller low on suspense, but at least it manages to be moderately compelling, invigorating and somewhat of a guilty pleasure, as long as you don't have a weak stomach for violence.
-
Rob Humanick, Slant Magazine
Dog Eat Dog's choice of hyper-stylized, overexposed cinematography is ultimately more concerned with creating a mood of jittery, hell-on-earth claustrophobia than it is with forcibly exoticizing its crime-stricken Colombian setting.
