Leave your thoughts about Chop Shop.
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA poignant and heart-affecting film about a 12-year-old Latino street orphan who is one of the many poor in the forgotten America. |
| Projection BoothRob HumanickA film with an incredible sense of place, of space, of how they shape and guide and define us. |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowIt's like a New York City equivalent of a Third World bazaar: It hums with nerviness and cunning. And this movie presents a tingling vision of a working neighborhood after hours. Night falls in Chop Shop like a comfort, a cloak or a shroud. |
| Film ThreatKJ DoughtonThe ambiguous fates awaiting Alejandro and Isamar are resonant and unforgettable. |
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. JonesTells the kind of New York story too often overlooked. |
| TV Guide MagazineKen FoxBahrani's willingness to expose the shameful reality of third-world conditions in the Land of Plenty while telling a crackling good story marks him as a filmmaker as important as he is accessible. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaBeautifully observed, and beautifully acted by the novice thespian Polanco (culled from a New York City public school), Chop Shop is at once a heartbreaker and a story of hope and the American Dream. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertNow we have an American film with the raw power of “City of God” or “Pixote,” a film that does something unexpected, and inspired, and brave. |
| Monsters and CriticsRon WilkinsonShot in the unvarnished sets of New York's Iron Triangle, the unpaved mud holes of the streets and the rough plywood of bedroom walls tell an unforgettable story of growing up in a world with little pity |
| New York Daily NewsJack MathewsAle's community is like a band of pirates - collegial, bickering, larcenous and supportive - and his life within it is both heartening and heartbreaking. |
