Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
For a film about growing up, Illegal Tender loses itself in a lot of silly juvenilia.

What in God's name was going on with this movie?

fresh:
It's hard to shake the impression that this movie has the sort of penny-pinching authenticity Quentin Tarantino's been trying for his entire career.

rotten:
More care seems to have been taken with the cut of Gonzalez's sideburns than with the shape of the story, and the hyperbolic soundtrack does most of the work of the mise en scene.

rotten:
An entertaining genre piece boasting a terrifically sinewy lead performance from Wanda De Jesus.
