| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonKeith -- a consistent hit-maker who wrote the controversial 9/11 song "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue" -- has a future in movies if he wants it. Hopefully, they'll be better ones than this. |
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghThe Country Music Channel's first foray into feature filmmaking is sickly sweet and thoroughly predictable, and woefully underuses veterans Harper and Reynolds, but it features some stirring performances, including BeBe Winans and Willie Nelson dueting on "The Uncloudy Day." |
| Philadelphia InquirerDavid HiltbrandGet the soundtrack; wait for the movie to come to CMT. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonIt's obviously intended as a star vehicle, but Broken Bridges turns out to be a rattletrap jalopy for country music performer Toby Keith. |
| Chicago ReaderJ.R. JonesKeith is an awkward, galumphing presence, but he's more fun to watch than Kelly Preston as the girl's uptight mother. |
| Austin ChronicleJosh RosenblattDirector Goldmann, who cut his teeth directing videos for Shania Twain and Faith Hill, never misses a chance to punch-up an emotional scene with a contrived, heart-melting music performance by one or more of his stars. |
| User ReviewHeatherB.Toby should make more movie's like this one. We had a house full when we watched this movie and there was not a dry eye in the house when this movie was over. |
| User ReviewKimL.Don't care what the critics say...I LOVED this movie! It's a great movie for the whole family. Toby Keith was great and Lindsey Haun's "Broken" was wonderful. |
| User ReviewTeresaB.This movie was wonderful. Toby Keith did a great job as well as the other actors. It was predictable but I loved the turns that it took to get there. Lindsey has a wonderful voice and "Broken" is a song that really touched me. We could use more movies like this. |
| User ReviewJulieL.I watched it last night and I have talked about it all day. It was a great movie. It touched many aspects of everyday life and strugglesmany people face today. I thought all actors were great. Two thumbs up from me. |
