Critic Reviews

TV Guide Magazine Steve Simels

If this is even a reasonably accurate account of someone's real life, then we as a culture may be in worse shape than we imagine. Read full review

Lou Lumenick

Like many first films, Boricua's Bond is wildly uneven.

Dana Stevens

Suffers from a fatal lack of modulation. It paints a picture of inner-city life as an endless sequence of beatings and shouting matches, and in its glum cartoonishness insults the people whose strivings it means to honor. Read full review

Robert Koehler

At the most basic level, Boricua's Bond is at war with itself. Read full review

Jami Bernard

If you haven't had enough of the Central Park rampage videos showing human nature at its worst, you could always pay to see Boricua's Bond. Read full review

Amy Taubin

Despite its incoherence and inaudible dialogue, this slice-of-life film manages to be simultaneously thuggish and platitudinous. Read full review
