CRITICS OF "The Express"

Fayetteville Free Weekly

The Express is running on two rails at the same time. There's sentiment, which is true. And there's sentimentality, which is not. At its best, The Express is a moving tribute; at its worst, it's conventional manipulation.

February 01, 2009

Resource

At the Movies

Rob Brown did a nice job.

November 10, 2008

Times-Picayune

It makes the most of its on-the-field drama, but it tends toward gross generalizations and oversentimentality. ... As a result, the film is burdened with hokiness.

October 23, 2009

Christian Science Monitor

The Express may prove valuable to movie historians since it's a compendium of virtually every sports movie cliché ever contrived.

October 13, 2008

Resource

7M Pictures

At times The Express couldn't decide whether it was telling a story of racial tensions, a general inspirational sports film or the tragic biography of Ernie Davis

March 05, 2009

Resource

Laramie Movie Scope

The movie also has its heart in the right place and it is as earnest as it can be. It simply falls short of being a great movie.

July 31, 2009

Resource

Empire Magazine

While never as trailblazing as its subject, The Express is a worthy addition to the lengthy canon of sports biopics.

December 05, 2008

Resource

Apollo Guide

While there's nothing remarkable about the way director Gary Fleder has brought The Express to the screen, this is a solid film that does justice to Davis' legacy.

January 03, 2009

USA Today

Despite appealing performances and kinetic football scenes, the storytelling is mostly conventional, except for two outstanding set pieces.

October 18, 2008

Resource

Time Out

The sports-movie template is capable of absorbing any story and delivering the same uplift.

December 05, 2008

Resource

At the Movies

Football fan or not, definitely be sure to see it.

November 10, 2008

Resource

Chicago Tribune

The film does the job, in its conventional way. But it's geared to throw the prime screen time in the direction of the guy playing the guy coaching the guy who's supposed to be running the movie.
