CRITIC REVIEWS

"Make no mistake, [Burn's] damn good at his singular craft, adept at building and oiling this particular machine. And it runs as smoothly as ever -- the plentiful laughs arrive right on cue, as do the occasional moments of near-poignancy."

~ Rick Groen, Globe and Mail

"Sidewalks of New York is a love letter to a city and a populace that deserve it."

~ Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

"Reminds us, deep down, of why we love New York -- and a lot of people in it."

~ Michael Wilmington, The Chicago Tribune

"Its New York flavor and energies are the real thing, and it grows on you."

~ Jay Carr, The Boston Globe
