9. Sollers Point Reviews - Metacritic
Sollers Point is a moving and elusive blend of naturalism and melodrama, less a character study than an analysis of a community. By Chuck Bowen FULL REVIEW · 80.
Keith (McCaul Lombardi) is a twenty-four-year-old newly released from prison and living with his father (Jim Belushi) under house arrest in Baltimore. Keith is struggling to reestablish himself, and break free of the bonds forged behind bars, within a community scarred by unemployment, neglect, and deeply entrenched segregation. His intentions are in the right place and he possesses an aggressive desire to get back on his feet, but as he taps into all his familiar resources, he finds that he may be reverting to his old ways.

Keith (McCaul Lombard) is a con serving out the last year of his drug-related sentence under house arrest. Finally relieved of his ankle monitor (and under the steadying gaze of cinematographer Shabier Kirchner’s smooth-as-ice camerawork) he takes a liberating jog through the streets of Baltimore, savoring his freedom for a sweet moment before his criminal entanglements start to take an incarcerating toll on his life on the outside. Jim Belushi is superb in the small role of Keith’s father, a man admired and respected by everyone but the one individual he loves more than all the others combined. Point is neither a slice-of-life prison reform melodrama nor a character study, and it’s only when conventional thinking begins to surface in the form of a skinhead who has it in for Keith that the otherwise naturalistic pacing takes a turn for the unwarranted hysterical. I was all set to send up a poster-as-spoiler alert, but considering how far out of his way director Matthew Porterfield goes to dodge plot, it’s hardly worth the effort.
