Rating: 3/4 --
Dogfight isn't a love story so much as a story about how a young woman helps a confused teenage boy to discover his own better nature.

Chicago Sun-Times
While not a perfect film (its ending is touching but painfully abrupt and unresolved), Savoca's first movie since her breakthrough True Love reveals her as a director with more stories to tell in her feeling personal way.

Description by OLDIES.com:
The Marines have landed! Cpl. Eddie Birdlace and three buddies are on the loose among San Francisco's bars, tattoo parlors and blue-movie houses. They've also organized a "dogfight" -- a wager with simple rules: Each guy puts in $50, and the one who finds the most unattractive date wins.
