An inspirational sports drama that dares to ask difficult questions about faith.

Common Sense Media

Moving, faith-based tale of football star's unexpected rise.

Los Angeles Times

Just sweet enough and slick enough to appeal to pigskin fans and Christian family audiences.

National Catholic Register

While Brandon's own faith never wavers, the film cross-examines Christian pieties and even faith itself to a greater degree than any other faith-based film I can think of.

Aisle Seat

A movie that has some undeniable inspirational appeal, but also one that's so sluggishly told that the appeal is moderately blunted.

Screen It!

Had the filmmakers not repeatedly returned to the "doubting Thomases" and instead just played the film out chronologically, it would have had more of an emotional impact. (Full Content Review for Parents - Profanity, Bullying, etc. - also Available)

Lyles' Movie Files

As a basic football film Greater is perfectly adequate, but it could have truly lived up to its title with stronger convictions on its faith component.

Movie Nation

A faith-based football weeper that fails on almost every level.

Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)

It' s not a big biopic about a big football star. It's an inspirational film about a life well-lived that ended too soon.

... not a movie for people who look to movies for something more than uplift or assurance, but that's all right.

L.A. Weekly

Yes, Burlsworth was truly an angel among us, but Greater takes the audience through some heavy-handed hell.
