The Last Black Man in San Francisco's reviews
Media reviews
Roger Ebert
"Jimmie?s story is a slow ballad, a tragic ode, a dirty limerick, a wistful lament and a heartbreaking elegy. It?s a tribute to the notion of home that we all carry. This is one of the year?s best films."
Time Out
"The besieged spirit of an entire city infuses a remarkably ambitious indie, one that touches on gentrification, race and the places we call home."
Rolling Stone
"Funny, poignant, personal and a rage-filled valentine to a metropolis that?s seen its fair share of gentrification...the film delivers a haunted house story without the supernatural horror element. It feels singular, righteous, heartfelt. It?s already one of the best movies of 2019 by a long shot."
Roger Ebert
"The Last Black Man in San Francisco? proclaims a next-level brilliance from its opening sequence...This is the kind of movie that sucks you in with its vision, that begs to be rewatched in order to savor every shot...All the while, different tones of storytelling are blended?some beats are extremely funny in their dry manner, others are completely heartbreaking?and ?The Last Black Man in San Francisco? remains consistently gorgeous and unpredictable."
