Movie Reviews

BrianOrndorf.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfA valiant effort, but Courageous is such a clumsy motion picture, incapable of delivering its critical messages without displaying some of the most cringe-inducing filmmaking of the year.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Keith StaskiewiczHow you like Courageous - an overtly Christian-targeted production about four police officers learning lessons about God and family - will likely mirror how you view church: It's either an overlong ordeal filled with talky sermonizing or an uplifting communion with your deity and values.
jackiekcooper.com - 8/10 by Jackie K. CooperProfound without being preachy, "Courageous" never forgets to entertain
Spectrum (St. George, Utah) - 8/10 by Bruce BennettDares to preach its highly controversial message in order to inspire the faithful while risking the ire of critics and non-believers. Its message? Fathers, man up.
Variety - 7/10 by Joe LeydonMoviegoers devoted to faith-based fare will flock to megaplexes for Courageous, easily the most polished production so far from brothers Alex and Stephen Kendrick, the prolific and increasingly accomplished filmmaking pastors at the Sherwood Church of Albany, Ga.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Nick SchagerBorderline creepy, Courageous endlessly expounds on the importance of God in men's lives but fails to answer the more pressing question of why religious sagas such as this treat subtlety as a sin.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Frank ScheckCourageous reveals the duo's growing expertise as filmmakers with its skillful blending of moving drama, subtle comedy and several impressive action sequences, including a well-staged foot chase and a harrowing shootout between the cops and bad guys.
Christianity Today - 6/10 by Steven D. GreydanusWhile the film's church-based roots and the tendency toward didactic, schematic storytelling are still in evidence, Courageous is [Sherwood's] most ambitious and watchable film to date.
Jam! Movies - 6/10 by Jim SlotekIf you have a tendency to nod off during sermons, Courageous has a cure for that -- a noisy last act gun-battle with drug dealers that's primetime ready.
Common Sense Media - 6/10 by Sandie Angulo ChenDespite violence, Christian fatherhood drama is uplifting.
