Reviews
- "New Boy is a fun little movie that works well both on a comedic and dramatic level. The actors involved, most of them kids, are quite good, including Olutunji Ebun-Cole in the lead role."—Film JabberFilm Jabber: Movie Review: Oscar Nominated New Boy
- "Agreeable and well-acted, but also slight and more than a little patronizing. Never count a film out that's about schoolchildren and Important Life Lessons, when it comes Oscar time."—SalonSalon: Oscar Shows Us His Shorts
