      Michael Ordoña Los Angeles Times Chamaco (The Kid) is a boxing drama with an unusually high ring IQ. Rated: 3/5 Aug 26, 2010 Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times Despite a gratingly clichd soundtrack and a violent climax that feels wholly unearned, "The Kid" has an awkward earnestness that's very endearing. Rated: 3/5 Aug 6, 2010 Full Review Alison Gang San Diego Union-Tribune Chamaco has all the bumps and bruises of a boxing-themed film, but its story is also a tender one about a young man coming of age, and a father and son mending a frayed relationship. Rated: 3 Sep 1, 2010 Full Review Andrew Schenker L.A. Weekly We're treated to subplots involving Abner's meth-addicted girlfriend and a romance between his prostitute sister and his trainer, which leads to a scene of such melodramatic absurdity that it negates any remaining shred of narrative credibility.
