Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Stony Island is an easy-going, cheerful city movie about a bunch of kids who start a rock band -- and since the city is Chicago, there's a familiar feel. Rated: 3/4 Jun 16, 2018 Full Review Bruce McCabe Boston Globe Part of Stony's charm is its ambition. It's an emotional portrait of and commentary on the musician's lifestyle at the same time that it's a gritty musical which shifts moods cockily and assuredly. Apr 28, 2018 Full Review Marie Asner Phantom Tollbooth This film is a joy. Rated: 4/5 Dec 1, 2023 Full Review Ray Pride Newcity Andy Davis' "debut features studios and clubs, modest apartments and a palatial spread, but it’s a song of the South Side and downtown streets of its moment,.. In his Chicago-set work, Davis conscientiously captures the city with spatial integrity. Rated: 7/10 Nov 19, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
