Movie Reviews

St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)I can't recall a movie since The Straight Story that does as fine a job of capturing a Midwestern sensibility as Red Betsy.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertThe movie sees World War II and the following years through the eyes of those who went away and those who stayed at home, and it tells one small true story that represents the incalculable effect of the war.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris HewittI can't recall a movie since The Straight Story that does as fine a job of capturing a Midwestern sensibility as Red Betsy.
Chicago Reader - 7/10 by Joshua KatzmanThe period details are more accurate than in many Hollywood features, and Boebel, a native of Wisconsin, understands his midwestern characters, especially their resourcefulness and stoic resolve.
Kansas City Star - 6/10 by Robert W. ButlerIt worms its way into our good graces with gentle insight and an understated approach.
San Francisco Chronicle - 5/10 by Carla MeyerNegotiating the role of a forward-thinking woman constrained by family demands and era, Elliott elevates a picture that's lovely to look at but lacking in dramatic impact.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - 5/10 by Duane DudekReminds us to treasure the not-so-distant past like it was a family heirloom.
Chicago Tribune - 5/10 by Allison BenediktIn between all the sentimental (i.e. corny) mumbo-jumbo is a potentially fascinating subplot.
The A.V. Club - 5/10 by Scott TobiasThough Burmester and Elliott make able sparring partners, Red Betsy literally succumbs to an on-the-nose staging of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol,” with the old man cast as the model for Scrooge in a school play.
