... lived-in power comes through in Sheikh Jackson, despite its shortcomings.

Cinema Scope
Rating: B --
[Salama is] asking us to wonder when enough is enough and when wholesale submission to God becomes a detriment to the health of your soul.

The Film Stage
Salama gently, effectively examines the role religion can play in one's life and outlook versus how a secular, more free-thinking existence may offer greater latitude but not always better or happier choices.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
[Ahmad] Alfishawy's expressive eyes, the winsome premise and dialogue by writer/director Amr Salama are strong.

National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dangles something fun, only to deliver something sober, neither angle well-realized enough to make a satisfying whole.

Variety
Salama ... uses playful juxtapositions and time-jumping plotlines to make serious points about compassion, generational friction and family dysfunction.

Hollywood Reporter
The arresting visuals at their most peculiar would be my biggest reason to recommend seeing Sheikh Jackson, but it's worth watching because it's a good coming-of-age story with a nuanced depiction of faith and a strong character arc at the centre.
