Asphalt City's reviews
Media reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
"A grim foray into the grueling and gruesome work of New York paramedics (...) Sean Penn is great."
Roger Ebert
"It is when the film is at its calmest that it is also most persuasive (...) Sometimes maximum intensity does not yield optimal results (...)".
The Telegraph
"Intriguingly bleak from the start (...) A disconcertingly compelling journey."
Indiewire
"She is too focused on the violence she encounters on the margins of New York City to meaningfully interrogate the mental stress of healing it."
El Mundo
"Sean Penn transformed into a parody of himself (...) a film that makes overkill his natural place in the world. A true exaggeration".
El Periódico
"Her attempts to resemble the films of Paul Schrader, titles like 'Se7en' and countless police dramas are as blatant as the comparison with those references is painful."
La Razón
"It could also have been entitled "Jesus Christ Superstar, paramedic" (...) its narrative structure is that of a textbook martyrology (...) its staging could not be more effective".
