Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
American Flyers is shaky at the core, because it tries to tap-dance around its own central issues.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
The performances aren't bad, but they aren't good enough to give the film the heft it doesn't otherwise have.
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
A pleasant, straight-down-the-road, cliche-ridden ride.
– Wally Hammond,
Time Out,

rotten:
Unfortunately, overblown production just pumps hot air in too many directions and comes up limp.
