Reviews


100
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Nothing the Hughes brothers have done in their videos for Tone Loc, Tupac Shakur and others prepares you for the controlled intensity and maturity they bring to their stunning feature debut.
100
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
As well-directed a film as you'll see from America this year, an unsentimental and yet completely involving story of a young man who cannot see a way around his fate.
90
Variety - Unnamed
Fierce, violent and searing in its observation, the film makes previous excursions seem like a stroll through the park.
88
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Menace II Society has a devastating impact. Few films possess the power to keep an audience sitting in stunned silence after the end credits begin rolling, but this is one of them.
88
Chicago Tribune - Unnamed
A film of great integrity, assurance and political passion, if not driving plot. [26 May 1993, Tempo, p.3]
