Bosco Reviews
JK Sooja Common Sense Media
The true-story finale is given away in the very beginning as if to implore the viewer to stick around to watch just how Adams manages to escape a maximum-security prison, but the final act feels rushed and unsatisfying.
Full Review | Feb 7, 2024
Sumner Forbes Film Threat
Prison films are an underrated genre, and Pino’s film is a more than worthy addition to the great family of films that take place behind bars.
Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Feb 6, 2024
Johnny Loftus Decider
... It references the canon of prison escape films and allows space for Aubrey Joseph to ably interpret and invite us into Quawntay Adams’ inner life.
Full Review | Feb 6, 2024
M.N. Miller FandomWire
Aubrey Joseph gives a raw, powerful performance in Peacock's Bosco.
Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Feb 4, 2024
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue
The title character generates hard-earned sympathy in this earnest prison drama, but his true-life saga of resilience and redemption is handcuffed by shallow characters and genre tropes.

Robert Kojder Flickering Myth
Bosco isn’t attuned to any of the elements that would separate this story from a generic prison break film
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Feb 3, 2024
Lori Meek Ready Steady Cut
Bosco is a well-written and superbly acted feature about one man’s resilience and ultimate ingenuity in the face of adversity.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 3, 2024
