The historical perspective from this look into the past SHOULD be a striking message to today's haters of people different than them. Lest, they forget they also are descendants of immigrants. The story of perseverance is strongly portrayed in Cabrini. Well played roles by all.

Decent Films

As single-minded as its protagonist, Cabrini drives home in every scene its themes of human dignity—particularly the dignity of women and marginalized groups including immigrants and the poor—and solidarity in the face of prejudice and social injustice.

Cabrini doesn’t reinvent the bio/film genre, but is a solid addition to the faith-based category.

Rated: 3/4

Firing the Canon

Small in stature but big in heart and determined with a specific and heartfelt message, Cabrini is a classic studio biopic lionizing its subject and her accomplishments but also reminding us what is due each other as humans.

Rated: 7/10

Culture Mix

Cabrini is a little too lengthy (142 minutes), but this biopic about Frances Cabrini adeptly balances themes of religion and civil rights. It's dependably inspirational with sturdy performances, despite the film's frequently drab look and tone.
