Rampant crony-capitalism stood in the way of the people of Alaska reaping the benefits of their natural birthright. Enter a galvanizing reformer, a small town mayor who took on her own political party and brought on "sudden and relentless reform." The Undefeated chronicles the rise from obscurity of one of America's new generation of leaders: Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska. Starting during the Exxon Valdez disaster of 1989 when Palin worked a commercial fishing boat she owned with her blue-collar husband, the film shows the struggles, the victories and the setbacks during a controversial career. -- (C) Official Site

Critic Reviews
-
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
[A] fawning, oddly bloodless portrait.
-
Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine
The movie may tempt even the most ardent conservatives to emulate their idol's tenure as governor and walk out halfway through.
-
David Edelstein, New York Magazine
It's a straight hagiography, without nuance or ambiguity or the admission of opposing viewpoints, even those meant to be dismantled.
-
Robert Levin, The Atlantic
This Sarah Palin hosanna is done in by the simple fact that its director needs to go back to film school.
-
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
A troop-rallying campaign infomercial as imagined by Michael Bay: hero-worshipping, crescendo-edited at a dizzying pace, thunderously repetitive and its own worst enemy as a two-hour, talking-points briefing.
