Rockaway Reviews
Mama's Geeky
Tessa Smith
Rockaway is a little bit of a sports movie, a lot of a friends movie, and overall a survivor movie. I walked away glad that I watched it, and that says something.
Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)
Linda Cook
This solid indie film is more than just another coming-of-age story: It's based on the real-life boyhood of a child who survived a violent father with a protective brother and supportive friends.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
[Rockaway] relies on blunt sentimentality and awkwardly, expressly warps its own story inspired by true events to be adoption-ready for Stand By Me fans.
Film Threat
Joshua Speiser
There are minor quibbles that Rockaway takes on, and a large part successfully addresses some very serious, very adult themes: abuse and its legacy for future generations, familial protection, and preservation, loss and redemption.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Often contrived and clunky while falling emotionally flat with a dull screenplay and mediocre performances. It ultimately bites off much more than it could chew.

Jackie K. Cooper
This mix of "Good Boys" and "Stand By Me" touches all the right emotions with two brothers struggling to survive the summer of 94. Writer/director John J Budion is on the right track with his career.

Jared Mobarak
It shines [in] its desire to retain the darkness that's intrinsic to its drama [despite focusing upon kids]. Youth doesn't exempt us from the cruel world in which we live.
Movie Nation
Roger Moore
Attempts at giving this "Stand by Me" meets "The Sandlot" an "edge" are overwhelmed by efforts to rub that edge off.
New Yorker
Richard Brody
Rockaway is a survivor's film, and it's seemingly warped by the agony of the experiences that Budion is trying to relate.
Behind The Lens
Debbie Lynn Elias
A beautifully told story driven by heart and an ensemble of young actors who embody the characters with truth and authenticity as they face triumph and tragedy together ... lensing is intimate yet energetic and fluid immersing us in these young lives.
