Concepción de León New York Times Sep 29, 2022
Though Booker’s story and success are inspiring, the documentary falls flat, feeling more like a political tool than a commentary on the state of politics in Kentucky. Go to Full Review Katie Walsh TheWrap Sep 15, 2022
A surprisingly emotional film; this is not just a shiny piece of campaign propaganda. Go to Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Oct 30, 2022
Biographical documentaries about politicians during a political campaign often look like campaign promotional videos, but From the Hood to the Holler avoids that trap by presenting a fairly well-well-rounded portrait of Kentucky politician Charles Booker.

The politics may be portrayed far more dramatically than anywhere else in the world, but the impact feels just as important. Go to Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex Sep 17, 2022
7/10
If things break right for Booker, this could be an early chapter in a storied political career. From the Hood to the Holler is an entertaining and emotional work, even if it stumbles on occasion. Go to Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Sep 15, 2022
