Throughout, first-time director DeMonaco shows a predilection for white-hot patches of lighting, squeezed close-ups, and actor overindulgence.

Rating: 3/5 --
If Staten Island, New York is an ode to what it calls "the forgotten stepchild of Manhattan," it is a barbed and quirky one.

Rating: 2/4 --
Best is D'Onofrio as a gangster turned environmental activist -- he puts on a white three-piece suit, climbs to the top of a gigantic tree and refuses to come down.

STATEN ISLAND wrings a few suspenseful and comic pleasures out of a time-bending format that has served the likes of Quentin Tarantino...

Rating: 1.5/4 --
Staten Island has the stench of meat left on the counter for too long.

Slant Magazine
Mr. DeMonaco adroitly weaves violence, absurdity and sentiment, even an environmental consciousness, into a modest, appealing fable.
New York Times
Rating: 3/5 --
The tonal idiosyncrasies may grate early on but things coalesce nicely until the whole thing starts to resemble a diverting short story.
