Not Good

Canal Street is not a very good movie. The narrative is incoherent due to countless plot holes to maie the story even possible. The radio segments bring very little to an already exhausted film. The ending feels rushed to the point it's confusing. The cinematography throughout feels awkward, and it feels more like a straight-to-video film versus a theatrical release.

Well made account of the beauty we could have

Canal street does a superb job at not only incorporating and blending all races, but revealing how beautiful we could all be together if only we were willing to get uncomfortable.

Excellent film! A must watch for all of us.

Ignore ALL comments! Watch for yourself

I do not understand where the low ratings came from unless they watched a different movie??? The story is true of what happens in every city in the world if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time! Please just watch the movie and ignore ALL comments! Then rate for yourself.

A movie needs actors.

Low budget and very bad acting. They used 7production compagnies. Executive producers they used 21in total. No wonder the acting in this movie is so bad, they had no money left for real actors.

Why the low ratings?

I thought this movie touched on things that should be brought up. The acting could have been better but over all this movie keeps you interested. I'm not sure why the ratings are so low.
