Mama's Boy Ratings & Reviews
Q+ Magazine
Alex Valencia
And this is the underlying message of this film. In a world where segregation continues to drive humanity to pieces, Mama's Boy is Black's rallying cry for more tolerance, love, and understanding.
Bay Area Reporter
Brian Bromberger
Mama's Boy works more than it fizzles as it showcases two extraordinary lives. Watching this film with Mom could be the ideal Mother's Day gift as a celebration and tribute to an encouraging, empathetic parent.
Edge Media Network
Frank J. Avella
The often painful honestly displayed by Black, and his encouraging message about building bridges instead of hiding in our own bubbles, makes this doc one of the best I've seen this year.
The Film Experience
Glenn Dunks
Mama's Boy very quickly becomes a quite flatly pitched biography.
Butler's Cinema Scene
Robert W. Butler
This is powerful, inspiring stuff.
New York Times
Kyle Turner
Even when Black's voice wavers onstage or during interviews for this film, his belief in storytelling as a tool for empathy and activism pours from each word.
AwardsWatch
Daniel Bayer
The problem is that, in the film, this is all told in the most straightforward way possible, and mostly from the mouth of Black himself. This gives Mama's Boy the perhaps unavoidable feel of a vanity project...
The Queer Review
James Kleinmann
Deeply moving and unexpectedly urgent. Black is a captivating storyteller; articulate, fiercely intelligent, and passionate.
