| Christian Science MonitorM. K. TerrellWe've seen it all before, but this one is so well made and attractively cast it's a sure crowd pleaser. |
| Arizona Daily StarPhil VillarrealGatins pushes his way through emotionally manipulative material, but the performances are so appealing that it's easy to abandon cynicism. |
| Movie MomNell MinowWhen she speaks about her horse, Fanning can make you believe that no moment like that ever happened before, on or off screen. Now that is breeding. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderMost people enjoy a sweet, wholesome movie with an inspiring story; Dreamer is a reminder that those people need not be suckers. |

| FilmJerk.comBrian OrndorfA sweet, solidly constructed family film, Dreamer may be short on surprises, but it has enough heart for ten movies. |
| Chicago TribuneJessica ReavesRussell, who looks younger with each movie, holds his own against the formidable force that is Dakota Fanning. |
