The candid interviews put a human face on the conflict and convey a harrowing sense of hopelessness about the rampant violence and corruption, though it lacks cohesion.

Cinemalogue
A film that shows the social costs of the war on drugs, a campaign that is as futile as the war on terror with three compelling main subjects.

Rating: 5/10 --
Documentary team's camera is most effective in recording tragic faces. . . Ruiz covers much about the failing drug war that has already been seen with more visceral impact.

Rating: C+ --
This film doesn't pretend to offer answers; it settles for respecting the dignity of people who attempt to simply live their lives, regardless of the violence.

Hollywood Reporter
"Kingdom of Shadows," written and directed by Emmy-nominated Bernardo* Ruiz, is another important prophetic film from Hollywood and a call to action. It is gritty, haunting and somehow hopeful.
