Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
As Pre, Billy Crudup is dynamite -- a magnetic star presence who's unafraid to show how Pre's drive also makes him a bit of a prick.

Without Limits is an admirable departure from the norm, but its greatest strength doubles as an undermining weakness.

Without Limits wins as a sports film precisely because it's not really about sports or a great victory.

fresh:
With a very good part for a change, Sutherland invests the imposing Bowerman with a host of subtly expressed attitudes toward his most illustrious charge.

fresh:
Whether he would have won at the next Olympics, we'll never know. What we do know is that Towne, a man of ruefully romantic temperament, has found a soulmate in Steve Prefontaine.
