Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 7/10 by Jeannette CatsoulisMy Brooklyn, Kelly Anderson's sensitive study of gentrification in her home borough, is as much personal essay as urban-policy survey.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Michael NordineAs a paean to the sort of vibrant, quickly disappearing community that Brooklyn represents less now than it did in the past, her film works well; as a genuine study, it sometimes falls short.
Variety - 7/10 by Ronnie ScheibFilled with colorful, articulate neighborhood champions, this absorbing picture eschews militant outrage for a quietly devastating look at social commodification.
Film Journal International - 6/10 by Ethan AlterAn intriguing depiction of urban gentrification in action, marred somewhat by an unnecessary dip into the first person.
Slant Magazine - 6/10 by Kalvin HenelyA thoughtful piece of documentary journalism that synecdochically uses the controversial redevelopment of the Fulton Street Mall to talk about the process of gentrification.
New York Daily News - 6/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanWhen Anderson allows the experts - or simply those most deeply impacted by the changes - to speak, the film has a powerful urgency.
User Review - 10/10 by Kayla WGentrification doesn't just happen. It's redlining, purposely planned and implemented by moneyed interests in collusion with government. Powerfully and poignantly exposes how wealthy investors operate in shadowy pseudo-governmental agencies like Economic Development Corporations to write, submit and pass rezoning and development plans that enrich themselves. Government is complicit, with no regard for residents and small businesses who have made this the third most successful shopping district in New York City for decades.
