Stephen Hunter
Washington Post

What results is a thoughtful, analytical yet still emotional film, meticulously investigated and absolutely compelling.Full Review

Kenneth Turan
Los Angeles Times

If you have seen the masterful 2002 Brazilian film "City of God" or the 1981 film "Pixote," both about the culture of Rio's street people, then Bus 174 plays like a sad and angry real-life sequel.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Although it shares a bitter interest in slum desperation with last year's Brazilian-underbelly docudrama ''City of God,'' Bus 174 pulls ahead, I think, by not confusing cinematic pizzazz with the content of misery.Full Review
