The footage shows an argument near the front of the theatre before another man walks down the aisles, and they exchange blows.
Reports say one of the men involved was an amateur boxer by the name of Antonio Barru.
In an interview with a Brazilian radio station, he explained that the scrap broke out because of threats made by another member of the crowd.
"Everything was chaos and a disaster. He started to threaten me, and it got worse and worse until I decided to go down to where he was sitting. I couldn't control myself and what you see in the video happened,"he said.
It ended with Barru landing several punches and a couple of knees.
Shortly after the brawl, Barru said he regretted his actions.
"I apologized in the cinema and publicly because those images do not make me proud. What is shown in that video is not who I am. I would try (if the same thing happened again) to get the security to come and take him away."
