Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Steven Caple Jr. is a filmmaker worth watching, here and in the future.
– Glenn Kenny,

29 Jul 2016
fresh:
Caple has a unique eye and a strong sense of place. Here's hoping that next time he applies them to a fresher story.
– Noel Murray,

rotten:
Contrivances spoil the sense of realism and place that Mr. Caple, who wrote the script, often so deftly evokes.
– Ben Kenigsberg,
New York Times,
28 Jul 2016
fresh:
Caple emphasizes the desperation that breeds street crime, and he never tries to puff his kids up into heroes. They're just kids who feel insulted by the few prospects that seem available to them.
– Alan Scherstuhl,
Village Voice,
27 Jul 2016
fresh:
There's enough on screen, beyond Lendeborg's confident star turn, to label Caple as a filmmaker to watch.
