New York Times

It's the first Spike Lee film with the potential to be turned into a television show. More important, it's the first one to display real warmth of heart.

Loosely based on Spike Lee's growing up in Brooklyn in the 1970s, the casual, warm, apolitical (for Lee) script took a life of its own during the development process.

TV Guide

While Lee fails to impose sufficient structure on his material, expertly drawn performances help vividly to evoke the family and street life of an era untroubled by crack or drive-by shootings.

Time Out

The key problem is that the film is simply a ragged series of anecdotal sketches.

Nolan's Pop Culture Review

An affectionate look at youthful adventures.

Chicago Sun-Times

Crooklyn is not in any way an angry film. But thinking about the difference between its world and ours can make you angry, and I think that was one of Lee's purposes here.

A sub-par vision of Brooklyn with some bright spots

This remarkable movie will haunt you for a good long time.

Lee is as talented as any director is capturing an era, and some of the early scenes perfectly recall the mood of the time. The pop soundtrack may be a little too obvious, but it gets the job done.

One of Lee's more modest but admirable pieces.

It's not Lee's most challenging work, but it's certainly amongst his most charming.

TIME Magazine

Lee is a great self-promoter. After all his press releases and all his interviews, we are given films that are sketchy, unfelt and distancing -- incidents in Lee's career, the only drama that really interests him.
