What others had to say in their reviews
Time out new york says You wish it had more faith in the intellect of its viewers. It calls out for a thornier director, one who might have made an ironic meal out of the phony wars of words hiding deeper resentments.
New York magazine says In the stacked-deck world of Robert Eisele’s script, this team has an uncanny ability to grab the hindsight-friendly side of every issue.
Compuserve said An embarrassing chapter in America’s history of race relations becomes the scene of wonderful uplift in Denzel Washington’s moving and true story of how a small African-American college debating team took on Harvard’s in 1935.
