“A sleek film, only occasionally hampered by predictability and contrivance.”
“...a unique take on the crime thriller, an exciting perspective and one that balances farce with heart in mostly the right measures.”
“Ponyboi is a queer cinema genre pastiche that understands a movie can be artful, emotional, and incredibly entertaining.”
“At the heart of the film is a magnetic performance by River Gallo, conveying this compelling, flawed character’s vulnerability and resilience with every beat.”
“Ponyboi is a revelation of a character who appears to have it all together, and once this mask cracks, he quickly shows that he doesn’t, not even a little bit.”
“A campy visual feast that's dripping in neon, the style and vibe of this genre-blending LGBTQ+ film features likeable characters, refreshingly blunt sex scenes, and one hell of a wild, intense ride through New Jersey’s underbelly.”
“At its core, it is an attempt to bring about a fresh point of view into a landscape well-trodden by countless other versions that play to the commonplace spaces previously seen.”
“A crime caper spliced with a queer coming-of-age story, tinged with the kitschy punch of the early-aughts.”
“The film would be nothing without River Gallo's performance, which stands out as a beacon of light in this emotional and beautifully shot ride.”
“With Ponyboi, Gallo has taken a familiar genre and enlivened it with a story both groundbreaking and deeply personal.”
