New York Magazine (Vulture) - David Edelstein
Fruitvale Station will rock your world — and, if the life of Oscar Grant means anything, compel you to work to change it.
90
Film.com - Amanda May Meyncke
Fruitvale is outstanding, a telling portrait and testament to the life of one man and the complicated relationships to race and class that still exist within America today.
83
IndieWire - Eric Kohn
Fruitvale is largely sustained by Jordan's career-making performance and the way Coogler uses it to analyze his subject...It's a fascinating investigation into the contrast between media perception and intimate truths.
80
The Hollywood Reporter - Todd McCarthy
As Oscar, Jordan at moments gives off vibes of a very young Denzel Washington in the way he combines gentleness and toughness; he effortlessly draws the viewer in toward him.

The Guardian - Xan Brooks
The robust acting and sharp sense of the Bay Area milieu glides us nicely over the film's few soft patches.
