Reviews

  • "This wonderfully personal story is filled to the brim with a seemingly endless reservoir of laughs and tears. It's an experience that won't just have you liking BOB TREVINO LIKES IT, it will have you loving it."
    - Collider
  • "BOB TREVINO spins a fascinating story into a superb movie with stellar performances from its two leading stars."
    - The Daily Beast
  • "Leguizamo may give one of his career-best performances in the feature, but it’s Ferreira’s surprising command onscreen that is the most memorable."
    - IndieWire
  • "Together, Leguizamo and Ferreira share a chemistry as warm and lively as the campfire their characters share over one meteor-filled night."
    - The Hollywood Reporter
  • "Any dramatic convenience can be forgiven as the platonic chemistry between Ferreira and Leguizamo feels natural, empathetic and genuine. And as they both begin to let down their guards, it’s a pleasure to watch them; so much so, in fact, that it doesn’t really matter that the characters in their orbit are far less vividly sketched."
    - Screen Daily
  • "Laymon expertly crafts a narrative that feels as universal as it is unique. This film embraces a hopeful path, expressing with absolute sincerity that believing in the humanity of others is essential to healing."
    - Screen Rant
