Leave your thoughts about The Trials of Muhammad Ali.
| Philadelphia InquirerDavid HiltbrandThe documentary The Trials of Muhammad Ali is an extraordinarily detailed and textured examination of the man, the time, and the societal forces involved. |
| The PlaylistKevin JagernauthA wholly illuminating look at Muhammad Ali in all his complexity, providing a surprisingly fresh and vivid portrait of a man who played rope-a-dope with history, religion and sport and emerged from the ring as an inspiring, and flawed icon. |
| GrantlandWesley MorrisThe film deploys the usual nonfiction arsenal of news footage, archival photographs, and interviews to bring home the strange electricity of these seven or so years. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertIt's a deep dive into one of recent history's most fascinating notables. |
| Seattle TimesJohn HartlIf you have fond memories of David Susskind's talk shows from the golden age of 1960s television, prepare to have them blasted away by this revealing documentary. |
| RogerEbert.comPeter SobczynskiThe Trials of Muhammad Ali a unique and inspiring viewing experience. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyIt’s an inspiring picture, particularly given the difficulty of imagining one of today’s sports superstars going so far out on a limb for unpopular beliefs. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesBruce Ingram[A] conventional yet fascinating documentary. |
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeWhere it finds strength is in its exploration of Ali as a man and as a symbol. |
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. JonesAli's life has been recounted so many times that you'd think no one could come up with a fresh angle on it; documentary maker Bill Siegel succeeds, primarily by delving into the religious story, largely downplayed by the mainstream. |
