Brian W 04/09/2024 Powerful film about the forgotten heroes. See more Serena 04/04/2024 I truly didn't know what paramedics go through being first responders. Made me appreciate all first responders so much more than I already do. It was a good movie but a bit depressing too. See more Mr. Hollywood 04/04/2024 Was promising but missed the mark. It started out promising enough but then added a storyline that was not needed. Feels like they were not happy with showing a regular EMT they had to go the movie route where someone is accused of a murder. They should have stuck with just showing the hard and easy and bad and good life EMTs have See more Oleksandr G @RT59365000 03/29/2024 Dark, grim, but still one of the best indies released this year. Outstanding acting by main actors See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch 1d Asphalt City is an okay movie, but it’s not something I’m going to jump up and scream and shout about. It serves its purpose as an action thriller, giving you the intensity and fast-paced moments you’d expect, but I don’t think it fully delivers on the potential it had. The ending was probably the biggest surprise for me because it went in a direction I wasn’t expecting, and that helped give the film a stronger final punch. The cast is another positive. I thought everyone did a decent job developing their characters and working with the material they were given. The problem is that the screenplay is only okay. It’s not terrible, but it doesn’t give the actors enough to elevate the movie beyond what it is. Overall, Asphalt City is a decent watch and I’d probably watch it again, but after that, I’d move on. Unfortunately, the biggest problem is memorability. If you’re not constantly thinking about the movie, you can quickly forget it even existed, and you may struggle to remember See more Angela P @Angie999999 2d This was the most realistic movie I've seen in a while. Excellent acting, right down to the bit parts. It was raw, and I'm sure triggering for some, but very well done. A great depiction of what paramedics working in areas facing severe economic hardship deal with, and a damn good depiction of what the people go through and the conditions they live in. I'm surprised at the low rating and reviews this movie received. But I'm a native New Yorker, and although it wasn't based on a true story, it's a true story. If you're mature, compassionate, and can handle the truth, you want to watch this one. See more Read all reviews
