Christina Newland iNews.co.uk Offers a formula-driven tale of down-and-outers-done-good with a gooey heart in the middle. Rated: 3/5 Sep 18, 2024 Full Review Wenlei Ma News.com.au Bobby Farrelly balanced out the sentimentalism with a sassy ensemble, led by Woody Harrelson’s reliably spiky energy. Rated: 3/5 Mar 19, 2023 Full Review Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) There’s a self-righteousness to Champions that feels entirely unearned. Rated: 1/5 Mar 14, 2023 Full Review Joseph Tomastik Loud and Clear Reviews One of the most derivative, play-it-safe movies I’ve maybe ever seen. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 20, 2024 Full Review David Bax Battleship Pretension Champions manages to last for more than two hours without ever even stumbling into a visually interesting composition. May 16, 2024 Full Review Daryl MacDonald InSession Film Fans of the genre will probably enjoy this, but if you're looking for something new, you'd be better off looking elsewhere.
