Admirable film.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

The Japanese elements were so unique. With that came a fun and unique soundtrack. The composition was brilliantly visual. I loved the colors against the desert pallet. The big burly wrestlers, so sweet, and that was a surprise! So many great little pieces of authenticity in the native characters. great humor -- so many hysterical moments. The dog bits were such a delight. I loved the opening credits, very charming, which foretold the tone of the film. And on top of all that, I was captivated by a powerful story about a girl trapped in her own life. This has all the makings of a really fun cult classic. I would love to see a theater of people watching, dressed up like the characters. so fun! The world needs more fun silliness filled with authentic truth. Well done!

I have nothing but good things to say about this film. I went in for the dogs and came out with so much more. I thought the acting was great, especially from Rosalie Thomass, she had humor, beauty, grace. Matthew Bloom was so natural and the father played by Bernhard Schultz was perfect. I have watched it 3 times with a few different friends and we all loved it, I should have purchased it instead of rent it because it is one of those films you can watch whenever you need a good pick me up!I am a film buff and love all types of films as long as they are quality. There was a lot of depth I didn't expect to find from the name and the cover but it all makes sense. I don't want to spoil it but there is a fantasy scene which is an incredible surreal sequence I will never forget. Just for that scene this movie is a winner for me.I live in Arizona and this really represents a lot of the culture! I really they make a sequel to this.

We had an honor to attend the premiere of the movie in New York City. Everyone associated with this film was such a pleasure to meet. Matthew Bloom is big sweetheart and loved his interaction with Rosalie on and off the screen. An honor to have my Bocker decked out in his tux pictured in the movie. Total enjoyment for everyone who came to see the movie with us. A pure delight for wrestling fans and dog lovers alike. Engaging story and great interaction among the cast. Highly recommend this film if you are a dog lover and who isn't! Congratulations to all involved..you created a film that is a joy to watch and remember. Very special to be a small part of this wonderful endeavor.

We attended the Boston Premiere and fully enjoyed the film and its off-beat look at dog owners and relationships. The storyline moved well and the characters were skillfully cast. Hopefully there will be a sequel and we can further enjoy another episode. It does not hurt that we love Bullies!!! The crossover relationship from the world of professional wrestling and that of a young single professional woman was very entertaining and the two lead characters carried it off very well. We have seen Matt Bloom as his professional namesakes in the WWE and were very surprised by how talented he is as an actor out of the ring. His counterpart, Rosalie Thomass, was a natural in playing the love involvement in The Manimal's life, especially with their love of English Bulldogs. They carried off their relationship naturally and had the audience rooting for them. Well done!!!
