Movie Reviews

Christian Science Monitor - 9/10 by M. K. TerrellThis charming film (editing tricks aside), is rich in humor and period detail, and amazingly suspenseful considering we already know the outcome.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 9/10 by William ArnoldIt's by far the most inspirational sports movie to come along in many a month.
Internet Reviews - 9/10 by Steve RhodesAn old-fashioned, heartfelt film, exquisitely constructed by director Bill Paxton. ... [It] proves how superb a film can be without a single star in its heavens.
IGN Movies - 9/10 by Shawn AdlerLike the best fairy tales, The Greatest Game Ever Played works precisely because it is so simply told, so devoid of irony and cynicism.
Salt Lake Tribune - 9/10 by Sean P. MeansThe warm and unabashedly sentimental tone overcomes the audience's defenses, mostly because LaBeouf is so down-to-earth and appealing.
Dallas Morning News - 9/10 by Philip WuntchUndeniably great, the movie is not. But a good tonic, it is.
Boulder Weekly - 9/10 by Thomas DelapaAs a film replay, The Greatest Game is hardly that, but it's at least a pretty good one.
Laramie Movie Scope - 9/10 by Robert RotenThe game is full of suspense, twists and turns. The characters are fascinating. The locations, sets and costume designs are all first-rate. The story is held back by the Disney formula, but is strong enough to overcome it.
Philadelphia Daily News - 8/10 by Gary ThompsonBy the time the field has dwindled to Ouimet and Vardon, it's a match between good-guy heroes. We'll be happy no matter who wins, and happy that it's finally strolled to a conclusion.
Reno Gazette-Journal - 8/10 by Forrest Hartman[Director Bill] Paxton's narrative is confusing at first, but the film is entertaining overall.
