Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Martin Scorsese’s Mean Streets isn’t so much a gangster movie as a perceptive, sympathetic, finally tragic story about how it is to grow up in a gangster environment.

TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
Mean Streets is a brilliantly made film--terrifically acted, sharply photographed and crisply edited.
100
The Guardian - Peter Bradshaw
The movie's blazing energy is still astounding; the vérité street-scenes are terrific and Scorsese's pioneering use of popular music is genuinely thrilling.
100
Time Out - Unnamed
Scorsese directs with a breathless, head-on energy which infuses the performances, the sharp fast talk, the noise, neon and violence with a charge of adrenalin. One of the best American films of the decade.

Empire - Unnamed
Terrific. Top shelf talent at the top of their game, working immediately before they would change Hollywood.
