John Anderson, Newsday
It's tough to imagine how someone could make a movie about Jamaican gangsterism that's so devoid of political content, but that's hardly Silvestra's biggest problem.
-
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
Shottas has everything a bad music video should have -- close-ups of foreign sports cars, women with painful-looking implants stepping in and out of hot tubs, ugly men with gold teeth waving around automatics.
-
Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Stars from reggae and other musical worlds give acting a try in Shottas, a witless, misogynistic, gratuitously violent, drug-culture-worshiping film.
-
Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
Writer-director Cess Silvera delivers an empty, bullet-riddled exploitation combo of attitude and poses.
-
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
Who says they don't write good women's roles anymore? The females on view fall into two prototypes: Hot Tub Chippie No. 2 or Plastic Surgery Fire Sale Victim No. 3.
