"'Facing the Giants' is an inspirational drama that has its heart in the right place but loses its storytelling skills somewhere in the heavens."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  A. J. Hakari

D-
"Would seem sincere enough, but it's just a chain of ludicrous cliches of both the sports and religious variety."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

6/10
"Kendrick needs to learn that didacticism isn't a film aesthetic."  DVDTown.com  James Plath

2/5
"Earnest but amateurish."  EDGE Boston  Phil Hall

C-
"... full of praise for God in place of foul language and biblical quotes in place of deeds. It preaches to the converted -- literally."  Seattle Post-Intelligencer  Sean Axmaker

C+
"Fitfully entertaining… To reach a broader audience, though, the filmmakers will have to scrap their playbook and learn a whole new set of rules."  Decent Films Guide  Steven D. Greydanus
