| New York Magazine/VultureDavid DenbyI've grown increasingly restive at such films as Mississippi Burning, A Time to Kill, and Ghosts of Mississippi... All three films celebrate the heroism of white law officers in prosecuting racist killers. |
| Nolan's Pop Culture ReviewMichael A. SmithWell intended film with James Woods Oscar worthy in a key role. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaStrangely devoid of any emotional weight. |
| User ReviewKellus SOMG! I don't think I have ever been more pissed throughout a film then through this one! I hate how people freely use the "n" word!!!!! And the people in the film were getting all my nerves!!! I HATE segregation!!!!!! Possibly one of my favorite films right now, but I still feel pissed and emotional! Why have I just now watched this film?! I feel that this film needs to be shown in school districts. |
