Buffalo Girls

It's difficult to say if Kellstein's approach to these difficult cultural dilemmas is meant to leave the audience to decide for themselves or if he can't figure it out either.

Stam, Pet and their families don't seem to think much about what they're doing. Neither does Buffalo Girls.

Kellstein gives viewers more or less the same show that the fans and gamblers get.

The burning question of child safety and long-term physical effects of fists-and-feet Muay Thai boxing is all but absent.

Buffalo Girls hews close to the experience at hand, which sometimes feels a little too much like a normal leading-up-to-the-big-game Undefeated-style sports doc.

Todd Kellstein doesn't allow you to entirely indulge convenient (though understandable and perhaps irresistible) armchair outrage.

A surprising and sad glimpse into an unusual and heretofore largely unknown subculture, but one that feels frustratingly aimless.

The audience has been delighted to spend some time with a couple of remarkable young ladies.

A story that, though sickly fascinating, is as crudely rendered as its images.
