| The New York TimesGlenn KennyBobbito Garcia, the author, basketball maven, sneaker obsessive, D.J. and all-around culture entrepreneur, is one of the most personable documentary subjects I’ve encountered in quite some time. |
| ColeSmithey.comCole Smithey"Rock Rubber 45s" is a personalized crash course into New York culture that charms by virtue of this film's charismatic subject. Sure it's self-reflexive; that's the point. |
| Film Journal InternationalAnna StormIt’s a bit self-glorifying, but you can’t deny that Garcia’s story of job-hopping and success won on charm, passion and hard work is compelling. |
| Film ThreatBrian ThompsonAs a filmmaker, Bobbito García continues to flaunt his superb abilities as a trend-setter. |
| Village VoiceJordan HoffmanBobbito’s storytelling is infectious, and the scenes of community outreach are heartwarming. May all such vanity projects have such a friendly beat. |

| MetroActiveRichard von BusackGarcia's autobiographical documentary Rock Rubber 45s is a delight - this 50-something man of many talents is a born ambassador. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThough enjoyable as it touches on some of the liveliest scenes in New York City's recent pop-culture history, the doc's appeal is greatly limited by Garcia's blinkered perspective on his own life. |
