The Greatest Game Ever Played Reviews
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A sweet-natured, prettily photographed and at times genuinely exciting drama, bogged down by some thinly written characters and syrupy music.
Orlando Sentinel
Roger Moore
A jazzy, snazzy crowd-pleasing sports drama.
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
The film will have to settle for a bogey rather than a par.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
The ever-swelling musical score would embarrass a Metamucil commercial.
Newark Star-Ledger
Lisa Rose
The Greatest Game Ever Played may not be quite as superlative as its title, but it spins an engaging tale of sports triumph.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
As Ouimet strides toward the 18th green on the last day of the Open, it's impossible not to feel the crowd's excitement.
Miami Herald
Peter Debruge
If it weren't for Shia LaBeouf, the charmingly awkward young star of Disney's Holes, we'd be stuck with a glorified TV movie, complete with lousy CG effects and indecipherable golfing montages.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
This may not be the greatest golf movie ever made, but it's head and shoulders above other recent screen treatments of the sport.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
[A] fatally repetitive film.
Dallas Morning News
Philip Wuntch
Undeniably great, the movie is not. But a good tonic, it is.
Zap2it.com
Dan Fienberg
Working on a far larger scale, Paxton's second directing effort is as crowd-pleasing and broad as his debut, Frailty, was gothic and disturbing.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
...the veteran British character actor is so good as Vardon I can't imagine another inhabiting the role so wonderfully. Dillane adds so many layers, so many idiosyncratic quirks, that the golfer comes to life the very first moment he takes the screen.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
The most visually and emotionally dynamic film ever made about a game of golf - perhaps the most visually and emotionally dynamic possible film about a game of golf.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
The Greatest Game never thrills on an emotional level the way the best of sports films -- a Hoosiers, say -- can, but it's a satisfying entertainment nonetheless.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The story's hard to resist.
Village Voice
Mark Holcomb
Ouimet versus Vardon probably was the greatest golf game ever played, and Paxton and Frost do it justice, but I wouldn't sit through another simulated hole of it for Tiger Woods's salary.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
I know it's all about how well they construct the journey, but I just kind of felt like, okay, we know exactly what's going to happen here.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
[An] overloaded movie.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
The latest and least effective of Disney's inspirational sports movies.
