Crime in the Streets Ratings & Reviews
Photoplay
Janet Graves
The well-worn subject of juvenile delinquency here is freshened up by an honest approach and strong acting.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
The film is built around long takes of tightly composed performances, culminating in a bravura four-minute shot with entrances and exits brilliantly orchestrated by the commanding presence of Cassavetes.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Depends heavily on Cassavetes' intensity and Siegel's brutality to make it work.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Siegel manages to keep the action wound pretty tight, though he doesn't seem to sympathize much with Rose's bleeding-heart liberalism.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A lively and intense melodrama about a youth gang hanging out in the mean city streets.
