"Director Jay Jennings' clever homage to film's like "Bad Lieutenant" and "Mean Streets" uses to great effect the seedy urban nightmare that is 21st century Hollywood." Films In Review
"A gritty and foul-mouthed tip o' the hat to both 1950s film noir and 1970s hardcore crime thrillers. Director Jay Jennings' black-and-white imagery embodies the film with both its grittiness and its stark humanity." The Independent Critic
"Fast-paced and hilariously foul, "HELL TO PAY" features tons of great Los Angeles location shooting from the east side of Hollywood all the way to Santa Monica, with a little of everything in between." Mondo Digital
"HELL TO PAY" avoids the normal pitfalls which plague most independent films. By avoiding use of color we get a raw picture that keeps your eye focused on the characters." KillerReviews.com
"The cast turns in uniformly good performances, and director Jay Jennings gritty, documentary-style, black-and-white photography is exceptional." Rough Edges
"Visually, the film’s black and white cinematography does a superb job capturing the grittiness of the story at hand. Pacing wise, everything moves along at a breakneck pace." 10K Bullets
"HELL TO PAY" is an awesome and enjoyable noir, especially the gangster dad."
