Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com It's a blast watching a quality cast give it their all in a low-budget, passion project. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Sep 4, 2020 Full Review Adam Mock Film Inquiry Boris And The Bomb not only tries to be bigger than the sum of its parts but also seems to have a lot of heart put into it. Unfortunately, the film never reaches the heights envisioned by its creators. May 28, 2020 Full Review Alan Ng Film Threat In the end, I liked Boris and the Bomb. J. Anthony McCarthy is a good actor and makes Boris a likable character worth following on his journey. Rated: 7/10 May 5, 2020 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews It passes the "giggle test" as the kind of comedy- lite film that's safe to watch during a worldwide pandemic.

Audience Member "Boris and the Bomb" is A TON of FUN!!! This movie knows EXACTLY what it is and doesn't hesitate to pull you into it's whacky, campy ride from the beginning and keeps you strapped-in all the way until the very end!!! The cast is GREAT, but it's J. Anthony McCarthy who REALLY SHINES as Boris!!! He's one of those actors that looks REALLY FAMILIAR, because he's been in EVERYTHING, but that doesn't stop him from bringing a BRILLIANT comic character to life in this flick! Kudos to director David Kronmiller for shepherding this project from inception to completion! Great job! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Loved it. Entertaining. Lots of action, great characters and story and humor Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member There's a surprising amount of action for an indie film in this spirited comedy. It's a fun, fast-paced movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. I laughed out loud more than a few times! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Boris has a bomb, a severe problem, and a dedicated Yuber (not Uber) driver. Boris and The Bomb is a fun romp that starts on the streets of Los Angeles. It's a light-hearted action-comedy that's full of heart (if that makes sense). The movie paces well, and we don't experience dull moments. The action/editing is done surprisingly well with higher budget movies still missing this mark. The movie entertains us through a fast-moving plot and a landscape dotted with new and outrageous characters. Don't take this movie and its characters too seriously. Make your popcorn, sit back on the couch, and escape into the world of Boris and The Bomb! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Totally fun. Crazy story and talented cast. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved this movie and am part of the team that programmed it, over hundreds of other submissions for The Valley Film Festival. I loved the side characters who kept me laughing the whole time. Boris's interaction with Los Angeles is hilarious the script is well written and it was a huge hit at the festival!
