Darrell S Violent, and very strong racial language. Anthony Quinn couldn't save this one. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Alain E I tried to watch this as I am a big Quinn fan, but the exaggerated acting and situations exceeded my tolerance for BS. If you want to see Anthony Quinn punching half of Manhattan, this is the movie for you. And let’s not forget the “brothers” with their hats and capes. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/25 Full Review jwcdood Although it has excellent critic and audience reviews, ACROSS 110TH STREET is a really good story, but it's an extremely dated (and virtually junk yard, day old beer stinking) production. It's 51 years old with a lost and wandering style of direction and editing from the same period. I rate it as 3 stars (max!) since the story is good, but practically everything else about it comes across as very cheap, shoddy and sloppy, third rate pretense. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/07/23 Full Review Billy L Amazing! Having lived in NYC as a boy This film portrays what the streets where like in 1972...no hipster's or Starbucks then. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Overall, this is an engaging crime story with many brutal moments and unexpected outcomes. The performances here are generally solid, but the dialogue is more impressive, feeling authentic and tense. I enjoyed the concept of how one bad crime can have a major ripple effect and disastrous consequences within a large city, especially if the two leading police officers fail to catch and stop the criminals. It's a fascinating classic, and I feel it's worth a look, even if it doesn't warrant repeated viewings once you know the outcomes of all the different characters within the story. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie hits the ground running and doesn't let up. It starts with the bloody robbery of a Mafia money drop, then follows the Mafia guys as they get bloody retribution on the thieves, always staying a step ahead of the police. But between the scenes of beatings and killings we get nicely acted moments that make the thieves human and sympathetic (well, two of them anyway – the first to go is pretty much your typical party guy who draws attention to himself in the dumbest way possible). There are also some vivid depictions of race relations between African-Americans and the police in New York in the 1970s (which haven't changed a lot, apparently). It's not a feel-good movie, by any means – in fact, it's pretty nihilistic – but it's never dull and a great time capsule of its era.
