TV Guide Steve Simels
It may not be as epochal a piece of work as "Mean Streets," but packs what feels like a real-life punch none the less.

Village Voice Ed Park
"Sopranos" vet Dominic Chianese is squandered as a banal father confessor.

The New York Times Stephen Holden
Sergio's urban melodrama Under Hellgate Bridge suggests the contemporary equivalent of any number of 1930's B movies.

Nate T. gave it a 5:
Ok I actually haven't seen it. But I used to live about 2 blocks from Hellgate Bridge. I wouldn't really consider that area of NYC to be the mean streets "where money, guns and drugs are a way of life".
