Critics Consensus

Enthusiastically unpleasant and mostly unfunny, The Bronze fails to stick the landing -- or much else along the way.

The hero was so mean that I was ready to turn it off. However, was good watching how a small town girl learns what's really important. Note, it is not a being a medal winner.

O filme se torna totalmente tóxico e até justificável muitas das atitudes bizarras dos atletas, apesar de ser uma comédia, se torna atemporal diante da polêmica de Simone Bailes nas Olimpíadas recentes, a importância e necessidade de manter saúde mental limpa e em dia… O filme é divertido, um certo elogio na protagonista egocêntrica, loira-burra (detesto esse conceito), mimada e presa ao passado em que era uma heroína nacional, entretanto as tiras são divertidas, entretém, e nos conscientiza...

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Loved it. Dry and sweet, it's absolutely worth watching.

Crude and crass. Did not prevent me from laughing hysterically at the pampered athlete theme. It's was very predictable but the main character was so annoying she was charming. I happily exchanged my afternoon for this funny sarcastic film.

The Bronze is an uninspired creation that feels like Tina Fey's Sarah Palin impression in a 'Little Britain' sketch.

A crude yet cuddly comedy written by a star of "The Big Bang Theory."

Rated: 2.5/4

There are some decent laughs here (especially for a well choreographed sex scene) and even an amusing soundtrack, but there's just not enough story to go around.

Rated: 3/5

…don’t let the sports-movie clichés fool you; The Bronze isn’t exactly feel-good fare…

The Bronze earns its title spot - nothing more but certainly nothing less. A spot on the podium is a spot on the podium.

Rated: 7/10

The Bronze, and its anti-hero you love to hate, brings home the gold!
