What's remarkable is how much of City of Hope's epic ambition pays off, with a power that never becomes grandiloquent.

Roger Ebert

RTChicago Sun-TimesJan 1, 2000

City of Hope is a powerful film, and an angry one. It is impossible not to find echoes of its despair on the front pages every day.

RTFilm FrenzyJun 9, 2024

An absorbing tale whose themes remain relevant and continue to reverberate.

RTEl Nuevo Herald (Miami)Jan 5, 2023

It's a panoramic film, but never loses sight of its details, or sacrifices the particular for the general. [Full review in Spanish]
