Jan Stuart Newsday 05/11/2001
Energetic, earnestly performed and short on nuance. Go to Full Review
Stephen Holden New York Times 05/10/2001
1.5/5
The performances are correspondingly overblown and the soundtrack inundated with grandiose choral music and mediocre hard rock. Go to Full Review
Ed Park Village Voice 05/08/2001
Robotic acting and outtakes from the Stigmata soundtrack complement the perfunctory plot, while the dialogue indulges massive backstorytelling and desperate iteration. Go to Full Review

42/100
From start to finish, it feels like an amalgam of various other crime movies. Go to Full Review

C

Heather S @BWYGIRL 04/22/2024 Brian Vincent...wow He and Michael Roderick are stars. Love to see the acting. The piece has writing issues, but still holds up! See more 11/27/2019 Under Hellgate Bridge is an independent-film darling with half the cast of The Sopranos -- a must-see for any over of New York mafia cinema. Check out the early starring role for Michael Rodrick, who is now appearing on Castle Rock.

Bad story with bad acting makes for a combination that makes you want to just fall over and die.
