But the accomplishment is so utterly fantastic that the students are accused of cheating. Given a choice to accept the allegation or retake an extremely demanding examination to prove themselves, the students decide to Stand And Deliver.

Critics Consensus: Stand and Deliver pulls off the unlikely feat of making math class the stuff of underdog drama -- and pays rousing tribute to a real-life inspirational figure in the bargain.

El Nuevo Herald (Miami)

Rene Jordan

As original as it is fascinating, because it's based on intelligence and self-improvement, on the joy of learning, something that's almost always ignored by the cinema. [Full review in Spanish]

As a paean to the idea that one individual can still make a difference in this world, Stand and Deliver does just that.

Director Menendez has skillfully captured both the school and the kids' home environments. Nothing is prettified we are given barrio life in its beautiful-ugly rawness. Casting choices for the kids are generally brilliant.
