Critic Reviews

  • Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune

    A movie that feels like three hours of detention -- even though the film is only 97 minutes.

  • Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com

    If the poster for New Port South had any truth to it, it would read "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing".

  • Steve Rhodes, Internet Reviews

    Cooper shows significant promise in his directorial debut. Let's hope he finds the funding to direct again but with better material next time.

  • Gil Jawetz, DVDTalk.com

    Ultimately New Port South is one of those films that approaches an important and current issue (youth anger) but doesn't have anything coherent to say about it.

  • Christopher Null, Filmcritic.com

    Goes nowhere.
