Reception
The film has a 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 14 reviews.[2] Nell Minow of RogerEbert.com awarded the film three and a half stars.[3] David Ehrlich of IndieWire graded the film a B-.[4]
Lisa Kennedy of Variety gave the film a positive review and wrote, "...it’s an often-touching time capsule of a harrowing moment in which rampant death and police brutality, white privilege and surging activism answered the call of so much grief."[5]
Beatrice Loayza of The New York Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "The film proves one thing, at least: Like many of us, Hedges and his actors clearly had too much time on their hands."[6]
Stephen Farber of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review and wrote, "In short, this film leaves us moved and provoked — and impressed with its technical accomplishments — even if it isn’t a perfect distillation of our ongoing national nightmare."[7]
Todd McCarthy of Deadline Hollywood also gave the film a positive review, calling it "...a grab bag that mostly engages your attention and sticks in the mind as a vivid slap-dash portrait of a city and, by extension, a world under siege."[8]
