Critic Reviews of "Dangerous Minds"
Rolling StoneMay 12, 2001Pfeiffer gives a funny, scrappy performance that makes you feel a committed teacher's fire to make a difference.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 13, 2001The tale screenwriter Ronald Bass came up with, and the way director John N. Smith tells it, is stereotypical, predictable and simplified to the point of meaninglessness.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000If only the filmmakers had used some subtlety in telling the story, they could have done right by the real LouAnne Johnson.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000Pfieffer is absurdly miscast: Sly Stallone would make a more plausible Mr. Chips than the frail, squeaky actress does a nine-year veteran of the Marine Corps.
Film.comJanuary 01, 2000Stay home and watch Welcome Back Kotter. It's more enlightening.
Chicago Sun-TimesJanuary 01, 2000The movie pretends to show poor black kids being bribed into literacy by Dylan and candy bars, but actually it is the crossover white audience that is being bribed with mind-candy in the form of safe words by the two Dylans.
TheMovieReport.comDecember 26, 2006None of it rings the slightest bit true; all of it insults the intelligence.
Juicy CerebellumJune 11, 2003Horrible. A waste. How was this ever a hit?
Spirituality and PracticeAugust 28, 2002Inspiring portrait of an inner city teacher who discovers that making students feel good about themselves brings learning alive in the classroom.
eFilmCritic.comJuly 27, 2002Platitudes, cliches, stereotypes, and ... oh yeah, a soundtrack!
San Francisco ExaminerJanuary 01, 2000Hackneyed, obvious and Lite, complete with happy ending.
