"The film is beautifully shot, and the screenplay is a marvel of minimalism in which every word matters. As América, newcomer Kristen Gonzalez gives an utterly compelling performance, her smoldering temper perfectly offset by the bone-weariness portrayed by veteran Argentinian actress Ana Maria Colombo. If the story has a somewhat predictable arc – two prickly, difficult women gradually come to care for each other – it's handled gracefully and with infinite subtlety. ….the film is a cliché-free zone, and a richly nuanced character study."

--- Sarah Coleman, THE INDEPENDENT



"How América deals with the bleakness around her is the central question of 3 Américas. I admire director Cristina Kotz Cornejo for refusing to present a feel-good solution on the order of other ethnic teenage girls with big challenges films like "Real Women Have Curves" and "Bend it Like Beckham." In the end, América grows and changes but her problems are by no means solved."

"América's struggle is a compelling and thought-provoking one. It's brave to tell the story of what happens when you yank a girl away from everything she knows into a situation so foreign and trying that it transforms the very meaning of her name."

--- Lisa Phillips, "51%" WAMC Northeast Public Radio
