A moving celebration of art's redemptive power, Sing Sing draws its estimable emotional resonance from a never better Colman Domingo and equally impressive ensemble players.

Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) Perhaps it should have been a musical -- which Buell’s play originally was. But even without the tunes, you’ll likely be moved at some point, especially if you’ve ever experienced the pleasures and challenges of putting on a show. Rated: 3/5 Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Justin Chang The New Yorker Having pared away nearly every detail that doesn’t advance the plot, Kwedar and Bentley rely heavily on their lead actors to fill the ensuing breach. In this, at least, their instincts are sure. Jan 6, 2025 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Colman Domingo is at the peak of his considerable powers in Greg Kwedar’s inspirational, fact-based prison drama Sing Sing. Rated: 4/5 Sep 3, 2024 Full Review Fausto Fernandez Fotogramas Sing Sing does not seek to give us a message, but to make us share in the greatness of art, perhaps the last refuge of goodness, repentance and humanity. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jan 17, 2025 Full Review James Berardinelli ReelViews [Sing Sing] is touching and uplifting in often unexpected ways. Rated: 3.5/4 Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Randy Meeks Espinof ...a model film, affable but complex and, in spite of having a mainstream feel, is no less interesting.

Lisa G Very moving story about prisoners getting in touch with their emotions. Cool that actual prisoners took part. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/25 Full Review William C Colman deserves an Oscar nomination and might be a sleeper for a win. Recommend the movie highly. It is quite inspirational. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review Yuki I didn't know that the casts were acting as themselves with the exception of a couple. To know their stories are real, and the acting was spot on despite them not being professional actors. what an amazing movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review Belinda C Heartwarming story about the importance of theatre and the arts. I loved that real prisoners were used in the cast. Everybody was great. Colman Domingo was outstanding. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Vincent R Beautiful movie. The real life story is also life-changing and should be talked about more. I recommend anyone who has dealt with prison, jail, or even juve to watch this movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review T W Really powerful stuff, Colman Domingo is superb Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Read all reviews
