Mr. Weiss is more successful in introducing these people and setting them in motion than he is in allowing sharp, revealing details to emerge from the turmoil that surrounds them. May 20, 2003 | Rating: 2.5/5

In the final analysis, Amongst Friends works not because it's an expose of upscale, suburban violence and drug use, but because it takes the time to develop its characters so that the events which swirl around them involve us. Jan 1, 2000 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

Rob Weiss's Amongst Friends, a gangster rites-of-passage tale, owes much to Mean Streets and Goodfellas -- reminiscing voice-overs, bustling hand-held camera, boys bonding and boiling over -- but it has its own slender charm. Nov 28, 2017 | Full Review…

In this Jewish Mean Streets, Weiss substituts Scorsese's Italian lowlifes with upper-middle class Jewish youngsters who don't drift into crime but rather choose it consciously as a way of life. Apr 26, 2006 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

Aims squarely for Scorsese-lite -- and that's precisely where it lands. Jul 25, 2002 | Rating: 3/5

This Scorsese "Mean Streets" type of film has been done too many times and often much better than it was done here. Jan 1, 2000 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…
