Reception
Adam Nayman of The Globe and Mail awarded the film two and a half stars out of four and wrote, "There isn't a whole lot of style to Charlie Zone, but the movie-making is as determined and efficient (and thrifty) as Avery himself."[2]
Bruce DeMara of the Toronto Star also awarded the film two and a half stars out of four and wrote, "Charlie Zone, with its dark vision, intricate plot and noir-ish style, suggests Melski is a Canadian filmmaker to watch."[1]
