Scott Marks San Diego Reader 06/01/2018
3/5
Jim Belushi is superb in the small role of Keith's father, a man admired and respected by everyone but the one individual he loves more than all the others combined. Go to Full Review
Rex Reed Observer 05/25/2018
2/4
The screenplay is naturalistic and the lead actor holds attention, but the film is too long and inconsequential to make much of a lasting impact as Keith meanders through his daily routines. Go to Full Review
Robert Abele Los Angeles Times 05/25/2018
With "Sollers Point," [Porterfield has] added just enough narrative momentum to make that well-trod subset of crime sagas - the struggle to go straight - feel fresh again. Go to Full Review

B
A despairing slice-of-life drama set in the blue-collar suburb of Baltimore. Go to Full Review
Tomas Trussow The Lonely Film Critic 12/23/2018
3.5/5
What is striking is that, the more the action is delineated, the sadder the film becomes, because none of it is good for Keith. Anything remotely eventful only drives him further and further backwards. Go to Full Review
Joe Friar The Victoria Advocate 10/30/2018
3/4
We engage with the characters but don't necessarily align ourselves with any of them. We observe in a non-judgmental fashion. Go to Full Review

Michael G 06/04/2024 It was engaging but the opposite of uplifting. Probably what the director wanted. I didn't feel much sympathy for the central character. He was totally self centered and had no understanding that decisions and actions have consequences. Almost pathological in nature. At the end of the film you are left with two possibilities - he'll end up back in prison or he'll meet an early death. See more dan b 09/17/2022 acting was ok but there was no plot ended the same way it began, nowhere See more 01/02/2022 I enjoyed what i watched, and it was a well acted and interesting story, but there was simply no ending. the movie built up all these potentially dynamic character interactions and then just rolled the credits at the climax without giving us any closure. See more 10/28/2020 I cant believe how bad it is See more 11/07/2018 Made me feel tense the whole way through and was wondering when it would get to the point. Never happened and ended with nothing. See more 10/18/2018 Realism carries this indie. McCaul Lombardi stars as Keith, who is serving the final days of his 9 month home detention after a prison stretch. He's living with his father (Jim Belushi), in Baltimore, despite their strained relationship. Like with numerous movies of this genre, Keith will have to decide whether he will return to his old ways or go down a more positive path. You want to root for him, but he sure doesn't make it easy for you with his often bad decisions, as well as exhibiting his mercurial and violent side, on occasion. Overall, the film kept my interest enough to want to know how it would all turn out, but don't expect any easy answers or it all to be "wrapped up in a neat bow". See more Read all reviews
