Critic Reviews
-
Rachel Saltz, New York Times
Deliberately small-scale, "Five Time Champion" has tough-minded moments but too often veers toward the sweet and even the treacly.
-
Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice
Rule of thumb: If a movie about how life is messy features someone lecturing about how messy life is, that movie is not nearly messy enough to do justice to life.

Sara Maria Vizcarrondo, Boxoffice Magazine
It's not just the little film that could, it could be the last honest movie in Texas.
-
Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
With every landscape cutaway and twinkling note from its xylophone-heavy score, it begs to be taken as a dreamy slice of countryside profundity.
