| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenThis is a well-constructed film with real substance. |
| Film Journal InternationalMaria GarciaThe filmmakers have created a movie which is didactic, yet not condescending, and inspirational without being corny. |
| Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY)Judith EgertonThe characters are stereotypes. Owen's world includes a loving mother, a stern but well-meaning father, a fat bully and a skinny weakling. |
