To Live and Die and Live displays how Basir, this film’s writer/director/cinematographer, cares more about color than he does a comprehensive edit or overall story even when he is the subject.

While the existing canon of good Detroit movies leaves a lot to be desired, To Live and Die and Live is an excellent step in the right direction.

Rated: B+

Todd McCarthy

Deadline Hollywood Daily

Stylistically, To Live and Die and Live is cut down to the bone, with the essential action being conveyed but with a vital terseness that both frustrates and keeps you on your toes.

John Fink

The Film Stage

The mood created by Basir, who also photographed To Live and Die and Live, is far more interesting than any over-the-top, formulaic family drama the film boxes itself into.

Rated: C+
