Linsanity Ratings & Reviews
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
[It] remains an ingratiating glimpse at the mold-breaking player whose motto is "God first, family second, basketball third."
TheIndependentCritic.com
Richard Propes
Easily one of 2013's most enjoyable and inspiring feature documentary experiences.
AALBC.com
Kam Williams
A moving biopic about a humble underdog who surmounted overwhelming odds with the help of family, friends and a strong faith.
Nonfics (Substack)
Christopher Campbell
Not just for the fans, the doc presents an entertaining and thoughtful story of racial minded America and the effect it has had on the struggle and the success of Jeremy Lin.
Movie Mezzanine
Dan Schindel
If you're a fan of Jeremy Lin, it's unlikely to tell you anything you don't already know, though it may give you a few new moments over which you can coo, "Aw, look at him! Isn't he just a great person?"
Common Sense Media
Sandie Angulo Chen
Thoughtful sports docu will inspire young basketball fans.
EntertainmentTell
Stephen Silver
Doesn't really do anything too unorthodox, but the production values are stellar, and this wouldn't feel especially out of place as a 30 for 30
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
A little game footage can go a long way; and a lot of game footage, no matter how good, goes a very long way.
Shockya.com
Brent Simon
Commingling tabloid frenzy, familial roots, underdog uplift, racial identity and nose-to-the-grindstone doggedness, Linsanity is a film with lots on its mind but a solid vision as to the interwoven elements of Lin's astounding tale.
Hollywood & Fine
Marshall Fine
Unchallenging but exciting and enjoyable, an underdog story with a relatively happy ending.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
As a piece of filmmaking, Linsanity is scattershot and too reliant on newsreels. And the interviews, most of all with the religiously devout Lin are, alas, fairly unrevealing.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
Leong's film isn't particularly stylish, but it makes the most of the climactic Knicks footage, as well as showcasing a sweetly goofy side of the 25-year-old ...
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Hartlaub
You may have watched Lin's rise to national prominence the first time, but it's still easy to get caught up in the moment.
New York Times
Daniel M. Gold
Lin raised his game's possibilities; you just wish that Mr. Leong had raised his.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
A plethora of Lin family home-video clips, riveting archival and Leong-shot footage ... help tell the icon's remarkable story.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Banal and fawning, with Lin coming off as a pious, charmless subject.
L.A. Weekly
Amy Nicholson
Linsanity doesn't -- and shouldn't -- hide its star's religious beliefs. But the doc should have the courage to explore them.
The Dissolve
Scott Tobias
While it's a shame Leong couldn't find a fresher approach to Lin's story...he does well in setting the stakes. The greatest basketball phenomenon of the last several years takes care of the rest.
Slant Magazine
Kenji Fujishima
The interpolations of "heavenly" sequences of Jeremy Lin playing basketball against CGI backdrops offer a hokey visual analogue for the intersection of faith and sports in his life.
Variety
Justin Chang
[Its] strong but wholly appropriate Christian overtones may alienate some fans, but this is rousing fare ...
