Joshua Polanski Boston Hassle Road to Boston delights a bit in fish-out-of-water and defacing Americans humor. Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Ian Kane Epoch Times “Road to Boston” offers a technically superior, refreshing portrayal of masculinity and patriotism, themes often overlooked in modern Western cinema. Rated: 4/5 May 1, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Jim Beautifully told true story. Excellent performances by the three leads especially the young marathon runner. Stunning camerawork highlights the emotional tale. Very much like a Spielberg film in its scope and feel. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/09/23 Full Review Clark Kent Beautiful film based on a true story. "You can't represent Korea to compete in the Boston Marathon, because Korea in 1947 is just a refugee country." Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/08/23 Full Review Alva S Love it so so so much. The final sprint scene made me so worried bc I was cheering for Siwan’s character so much!! This role was perfect for Siwan. He nailed it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/26/25 Full Review Iroo M Not very bad movie with nice flow, but it has distortion of history and the plot feels very forced. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/08/25 Full Review Greg K Engaging, optimistic and motivating story against the backdrop of chaotic times, albeit a little too melodramatic. But thats what we like about cinema, don't we? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/03/24 Full Review Read all reviews
