Leave your thoughts about Free State of Jones.
| FILMINK (Australia)Erin FreeImpassioned and brave, Free State Of Jones is a towering piece of leftist American cinema... |
| AV ClubJesse HassengerRoss may not be a great director, but he has written some very good screenplays, none of which sprawl out like this one. |
| The AtlanticVann R. NewkirkA better film would have muddled the clean white-savior narrative with an actual exploration of what the racial politics of a mixed-race insurgency in the South might have been like. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperThis is no history lesson, but it’s mainstream Hollywood entertainment that respects the history and seems to invite discussion and debate. |
| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenI give Gary Ross a lot of credit for doing a lot of research and being so dedicated to bringing this story to the screen. This film is a good history lesson, but as a screen drama, it doesn't quite work. |
| Refinery29Carolyn L. ToddEssentially, it's a messy movie about an even messier stretch of ugly American history that would've fared better as a prestige miniseries. |
| honeycuttshollywood.comKirk HoneycuttThis may be one of the most honest American films about slavery, the Civil War and Reconstruction ever made. |
| Baret NewsKam WilliamsAn overdue history lesson about an important chapter in America's long march to freedom. |
| Tri-City HeraldGary WolcottSupposedly a "true" story. While debate rages, the movie is pretty good and it's an interesting view of the Civil War from people who thought everyone ought to be free. |
| AARP Movies for GrownupsBill NewcottA powerful performance by Matthew McConaughey and an earnest urgency drive the fact-based story... alas, those good qualities are undermined by a confused and overlong script. |
