Movie Reviews

HollywoodInToto.com - 8/10 by Christian TotoWe don't need another hero, right? American Hero begs to differ.
Starburst - 6/10 by Andrew MarshallAmerican Hero is a decent idea, but is let down by sloppy execution and meandering plot.
Screen International - 6/10 by John HazeltonWhat’s missing is much in the way of substantial drama or character development.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Gary GoldsteinLove does a fine job evoking the social and cultural vibe of the Big Easy and its environs. He also enjoyably uses documentary-style testimonials from Melvin's devoted friends and supporters, inspired editing and a slew of nifty visual effects.
The Hollywood Reporter - 5/10 by Frank ScheckAmerican Hero, which intermittently uses a faux-documentary style to awkward effect, never quite decides what it wants to be.
The New York Times - 4/10 by Neil GenzlingerAmerican Hero starts off seeming as if it is going to be a fresh take on superheroes, but Nick Love, who wrote and directed, turns out to have nowhere to go with his intriguing premise.
The List - 4/10 by Eddie HarrisonThe metaphor of superpowers equalling sober potential is good, but the careless development would barely fill a ten-minute short, making American Hero something of a slog.
Village Voice - 3/10 by Aaron HillisThe filmmakers blend tones like a child mixing fountain drinks into one unidentifiable flavor.
RogerEbert.com - 3/10 by Nick AllenAmerican Hero is an obnoxious rock star moment, with images of Americana that have apparently been lost in translation by an outsider British director.
User Review - 10/10 by Bryan BAbsolutely love this movie. It has it all. Most underrated movie of year. Not sure where these Grades are coming from. Hilarious.
