John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter 02/08/2018
An empathetic drama ready to put straight-laced audiences in the shoes of a maligned subculture. Go to Full Review Robert Abele Los Angeles Times 02/08/2018
"Bomb City" just keeps on having its Caucasian adolescents scream into the ether until you get it: angry middle-American teenagers are all not alike! Go to Full Review Danielle White Austin Chronicle 02/08/2018
4/5
The film's message, which it wields like a war chain, is a timeless one: Don't be such a dick to people because they look different from you. We all live in Bomb City: One stray match and the whole thing will explode. Go to Full Review David Bernal Cinemanía (Spain) 02/19/2019
1/5
[Bomb City] doesn't approach the facts in an analytical way, nor does it investigate the corrupt mechanisms of power that allow an assassin to go free. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Jordi Costa El Pais (Spain) 02/15/2019
Bomb City ends up being a film as angry as it is affected: its form compromises its reasons. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Chuck Foster Film Threat 10/03/2018

Kevin D @Judgingyourtop5 Jun 30 A modern day retelling of the outsiders, but it’s a true story that will leave you angry at the end. With Bomb City there is no hopeful warm fuzzy feeling at the end, just the bitter understanding that money and stature can help you get away with anything. On a positive note the soundtrack is amazing. See more Oaklee D @ODie63 04/22/2025 A very well made film and a tragic account of young kids taking things way too far. See more 06/08/2022 I don't mind slow movies but this just didn't get me invested whatsoever. Dull See more Justin W @Loonsan 10/01/2021 Avoid at all cost, there's nothing but wasted here; bad language poor story. Why even this matter? What's with the title do with "bomb? Why a high rating either? $ back guarantee, please. See more KARL O @GalwayK 08/04/2021 … it suffers for its terrible performances and dreadful dialogue. I was hopeful. I thought they might accidentally get one decent performance. Not. There is something remarkably silly about anyone older than eighteen on a skateboard. Aaaaaaaw … they're all good people … they like the liddle puppie dogs….All very simplistic and black and white with its views. And that constant give me emotion music…Didn't know when to quit. Also a little hard get preached to by Marlyn Manson (SP - ICGAF) these days…. See more 08/13/2020 Very surprising and shocking picture. Highly recommended. See more Read all reviews
