every time “as himself” rolled across the screen tears also rolled down my face. what a beautiful movie
Oscar Loser Saoirse RonanMar 15, 2024A very special movie. A reminder that in a broken system that only seeks to oppress, art serves not only as catharsis, but as liberation.

a tremendously tenderhearted tribute to the therapeutic power of the artistic process, overflowing with honesty and humanity in every single scene thanks to what is not only the ensemble of the year, but also one for the ages.

9.1 - Powerful & authentic. It’s been almost a week since I watched this and parts are still sitting with me. The way art can bring hope & peace, bring people together, allow you to feel human - it gives an entire range of emotions in a tight run time. But something small is missing from making…
Jason Marder lovedSing SingThis swells the heart. It’s a totally different type of prison film. And it is deeply moving. Ideas that stuck with me: Anyone can change + grow. Anyone can learn to love and feel. Trust the process. Try again and again. Give generously. Men need to be more vulnerable.
Luw lovedSing Sing9.4/In a weird way I find comparison between Sing Sing and “Emilia Perez”, instead of choosing well known actors for more publicity, they chose actors that are closer to the story. The ending: “As himself” (being almost all of the actors) really touched me in some way.>>

Finding joy through acting, in a program to give prisoners a sense of humanity, really made me emotional. The fact that the majority of these actors played themselves makes it all the better. One of the most powerful and authentic films of the year. 8.5
Hamilto lovedSing SingFound it inspirational and touched even this cold hardened heart of mine. Maybe most people know this going in but big twist at the end that the majority of the actors are the actual people the story is based on, you never would have known.
Mark Bateman likedSing Sing8/10 great story, cast/acting, so realistic and then found that most of the cast were real characters playing them selves. RTA great program and may it continue. Worth a watch.

Metacritic

With so many details pulled directly from history, along with scenes shot inside an intake prison that had housed the RTA alumni featured in Sing Sing, the film often plays like a documentary.

A film like Sing Sing is a rare, precious achievement — a cinematic work of unique empathy and hand-turned humanity, hewed from the heart, with rigorous attention paid to the creative process.

The strength of the cast alone can’t elevate Sing Sing to the realm of truly socially conscious cinema.
