Washington Post -
It is the four young actors who play the students who truly shine, and who elevate the formulaic film above and beyond its familiar proceedings.

Philadelphia Inquirer -
At times, Spare Parts sails perilously close to the saccharine. But the film is a fine example of a message movie that does justice both to its important subject matter and to its characters' inner lives.

Los Angeles Times -
Director Sean McNamara's film is impressively buoyed by a cast of young newcomers and seasoned pros.

Arizona Republic -
Spare Parts is the kind of feel-good underdog movie that almost can't help getting waylaid by cliches.

The Hollywood Reporter -
The immigration-themed messages of acceptance and encouragement are clearly spelled out, often in heavy-handed fashion, and an overriding blandness mutes the drama. But there’s also something apt in the straightforward telling of the against-the-odds adventure.

Spare Parts (2015)
With the help of their high school's newest teacher, four Hispanic students form a robotics club. Although they have no experience, the youths set their sights on a national robotics contest. With $800 and parts scavenged from old cars, they build a robot and compete against reigning champion MIT. Along the way, the students learn not only how to build a robot but something far more important: how to forge bonds that will last a lifetime.
