John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter An empathetic drama ready to put straight-laced audiences in the shoes of a maligned subculture. Feb 8, 2018 Full Review Robert Abele Los Angeles Times "Bomb City" just keeps on having its Caucasian adolescents scream into the ether until you get it: angry middle-American teenagers are all not alike! Feb 8, 2018 Full Review Danielle White Austin Chronicle The film's message, which it wields like a war chain, is a timeless one: Don't be such a dick to people because they look different from you. We all live in Bomb City: One stray match and the whole thing will explode. Rated: 4/5 Feb 8, 2018 Full Review David Bernal Cinemanía (Spain) [Bomb City] doesn't approach the facts in an analytical way, nor does it investigate the corrupt mechanisms of power that allow an assassin to go free. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 1/5 Feb 19, 2019 Full Review Jordi Costa El Pais (Spain) Bomb City ends up being a film as angry as it is affected: its form compromises its reasons. [Full Review in Spanish] Feb 15, 2019 Full Review Chuck Foster Film Threat Every piece is flawless, right down to the soundtrack. Rated: 10/10 Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Oaklee D A very well made film and a tragic account of young kids taking things way too far. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/22/25 Full Review Angelo U This is a beautiful story that captured my heart, it has beautiful cinematography and an amazing soundtrack, RIP Brian Deneke. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Audience Member I don't mind slow movies but this just didn't get me invested whatsoever. Dull Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/08/22 Full Review Audience Member Avoid at all cost, there's nothing but wasted here; bad language poor story. Why even this matter? What's with the title do with "bomb? Why a high rating either? $ back guarantee, please. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review KARL O … it suffers for its terrible performances and dreadful dialogue. I was hopeful. I thought they might accidentally get one decent performance. Not. There is something remarkably silly about anyone older than eighteen on a skateboard. Aaaaaaaw … they're all good people … they like the liddle puppie dogs….All very simplistic and black and white with its views. And that constant give me emotion music…Didn't know when to quit. Also a little hard get preached to by Marlyn Manson (SP - ICGAF) these days…. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/04/21 Full Review Audience Member Very surprising and shocking picture. Highly recommended.
