Reviews for Poor Yella Rednecks

""A rollicking, comic book-inspired... expletive-filled fusion of hip-hop and martial arts with the soapy twists and turns of addictive serialtelevision... a crowd-tickling comedy that squashes preconceptions in order to place hearts in a vise grip... Though rooted in upheaval and tragic loss, Nguyen's family history is presented with a delicate balance of over-the-top humor and unforced sincerity."" - The New York Times
