Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (LAist) We get a sense of the history of this game: where it comes from and where it goes to... It's really interesting. Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times Billy McMillin's rousing "The All-Americans" serves as a timely take on finding one's identity both on and off the field. Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Yolanda Machado TheWrap Yes, East L.A. is a community that struggles with poverty and homelessness and crime, but what the film lacks and forgets to capture is that, despite these struggles, and the kids' additional burdens, there is much beauty and joy to be found. Nov 7, 2019 Full Review Nora Lee Mandel Maven's Nest Not a sports documentary...seeing what it takes for these Latino boys to get on the East L.A. football field is much more involving than the limited playing time on screen. Rated: 7/10 Feb 1, 2020 Full Review Edwin Arnaudin Asheville Movies A passable documentary that thinks it's a powerful activist statement but is little more than a basic youth sports drama. Rated: 3/5 Dec 10, 2019 Full Review Chris Salce Film Threat The All-Americans is the truest underdog story. Rated: 9.5/10 Nov 14, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
