Leave your thoughts about Chapter & Verse.
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenFilmmaker and Columbia professor Joseph, and playwright Beaty, in his feature writing and acting debut, infuse the movie with an intense New York City realism and an evocative street poetry that conjure up early John Cassavetes and Spike Lee. |
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyThe movie’s wide-screen framing, ruthless plot reversals and say-what-you-mean writing sometimes recall a master of socially conscious cinema from another era, Sam Fuller. But this is a picture with its own strong voice. |
| Maven's NestNora Lee MandelPassionately felt and enriched by authenticity in setting, characters, situations, conflicts and solutions. . . in frankly looking at crisis of incarceration and recidivism. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA drama that has us cheering on an ex-con who is on a serious quest for a transformed life. |
| VarietyNick SchagerDespite its familiarity, Chapter & Verse manages to make its material both fresh and authentic. |
| New York Amsterdam NewsLapacazo SandovalThe theme of the drama is familiar and from the very first frame, viewers will understand that this film is a powerful story wrapped so tightly in truth. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe film handles its admittedly familiar themes in uncommonly sensitive fashion. |
| Audiences EverywhereNathanael HoodThe saving grace of Chapter & Verse is its painfully honest eye and ear for human behavior and speech. |
| FanboyNation.comSean MulvihillChapter & Verse exudes so much empathy towards its characters without ever coming close to being overwrought in its drama. |
| Film InquirySean K. CuretonBeaty's original screenplay and performance stand out to make Chapter & Verse a remarkable chapter in African-American storytelling from the twenty-first century. |
