"There's no escaping the fact that the film, well-crafted though it may be, is ultimately just as slow as the proverbial molasses."
Film Journal International
Chris Barsanti
"Though none of the boys, now young men, talks about it, they all bear burdens of rejection and rage."
PopMatters
Cynthia Fuchs
4/5
"
Shotgun Stories
is, at heart, a film about people who discover what they have to let go of, and who confront the terrifying possibility of hope."
Cinematical
James Rocchi
2.5/4
"Alternately terse and elegiac,
Shotgun Stories
works best when it observes the lives of its main characters, three lower-class brothers from southeast Arkansas."
