Village Voice -
Berry isn't afraid to use melodrama as a tool to highlight injustice. It's his very un-flashiness that makes Frontera effective.

USA Today -
Peña is a standout, and Longoria is a revelation as the vulnerable, pregnant Paulina. Hers is a decidedly un-glamorous part and Longoria compellingly fleshes out an under-written role.

Slant Magazine -
By turns abrasive and stately, sermonic and impartial, plot-heavy and meandering, often within seconds of each other.

New York Post -
Michael Berry’s Frontera offers an unsparing look at the plight of illegal immigrants, even if the ending seems too patly convenient.

The Dissolve -
Before the hokey third act, there’s much to like about Michael Berry’s border-crossing drama Frontera.
