Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A mediocre -- but not bad -- family drama... I just adored every moment of it. Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Michael Talbot-Haynes Film Threat if you are looking for a new kind of kick with a galloping pace, know that the minutes run away like wild horses when your ride with this film. [Brad] Keller and his crew in Dallas, where this was shot, have made a unique family picture. Rated: 8/10 Mar 9, 2023 Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times Heart of a Champion's content is very family friendly, but parents will need to sacrifice their own entertainment quality and let this one just be for the kids. Rated: 1/5 Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Stephanie Myers Common Sense Media The film only scratches the surface on the characters, and while there's opportunity in certain situations to have empathy for what the characters are going through, the problems resolve almost too quickly. Rated: 3/5 Feb 24, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
