Review of Sugar Hill (1994) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 08 Mar 2003
Sugar Hill is arguably the most beautiful-looking crime drama since Coppola's Godfather, Part II. Forsaking the glitz and over-the-top grittiness of New Jack City and other recent NYC gangster films, director Ichaso instead opts for the lush, burnished earth-tones of the Corleone clan.
It's a dark, rich film, and its lengthy running time of over two hours glides by with only a few annoying snags.
