Strangely devoid of any emotional weight.

Michael A. Smith, Nolan's Pop Culture Review
Well intended film with James Woods Oscar worthy in a key role.

Nell Minow, Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Strong performances but just another movie about civil rights issues that pays too much attention to the white characters.
-
Frank Ochieng, Movie Eye
Reiner's intermittingly preachy but nevertheless powerful and poignant portrait of hostility and racial strife during one of the ugliest chapters in contemporary American history
-
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
Convincingly plumbs the spiritual impules behind the yearning for justice.
