A marvel of closely observed, intimately captivating moments.

Toronto Star
Rating: 4/4 --
Writer/director Peter Sollett refreshingly avoids placing characters into lazy traps of pregnancy, betrayal or violence. These are intelligent, thoughtful teenagers whom you'll fondly remember as struggling through desires and instincts.

Peter Sollet's "Raising Victor Vargas" is a special film, independent in the truest sense of the word.

Real, sweet and often really sweet.
Newsday
Rating: 3/5 --
ultimately, it lacks the backbone, the thematic heft, to be anything beyond a sweet redemption story
Los Angeles Alternative
Rating: C+ --
Better than many other films in the dreaded 'coming-of-age' genre, but is not exceptional.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Victor doesn't have much, but that's not stopping him from trying to go out with Judy, the prettiest girl on the block. All he's got is hope and a one-bedroom apartment he shares with his family. His grandmother doesn't trust him, his brother worships him, and his half-sister just declared war. But Victor thinks love really can conquer all.
