The anecdotes from Cohen's early years in TV... are like a blueprint for how a clever artist can get a lot from a little. July 24, 2018 | Full Review…

There's nothing particularly inspired about Mitchell's treatment here - he's directed a lot of DVD extras, and this first feature feels like a plus-sized version of one - but there's considerable entertainment value in its subject. July 19, 2018 | Full Review…

King Cohen is a film nerd's dream - a love letter not just to a titan in the cinema game, but to an era where, if one were so inclined, a little bit of know how and some elbow grease was all you needed to make it in pictures. March 20, 2020 | Full Review…

Few writer-director-producers have a resume like Larry Cohen. The director of such classics as The Stuff and Hell Up in Harlem receives the credit he deserves as a genuine filmmaking maverick in King Cohen. October 29, 2019 | Rating: 10/10 | Full Review…

A bit of editing at the end would have made the documentary even better (some people start repeating themselves AND each other while lauding Larry), but all in all I had a lot of fun with this. September 17, 2019 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…

King Cohen leaves you wanting to do only two things: see more Larry Cohen films and get the jingle from The Stuff out of your head. July 17, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

The documentary directed by Steve Mitchell comes from a place of absolute love for this filmmaker who paved the way for many artists who came after and he inspired a generation of filmmakers to produce greatness on the fly. December 16, 2018 | Rating: B | Full Review…

It gives me the chance to listen to Cohen and his collaborators talk about the movies, it helps to highlight what is so special about him as an artist, and it makes me want to go back and revisit every one of his movies. November 3, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
