Critic Reviews of "Friday Night Lights"
NewsweekNovember 01, 2007Few films have shown so powerfully the slashing double edge of sports fever.
Chicago ReaderMarch 26, 2007A heart-pounding big-screen treatment that captures all the action of a tumultuous season while showing the emotional toll on the players.
Time OutJune 24, 2006The affecting, gruelling result is less a document of recreational sport than one of obligation and ordeal.
New York ObserverNovember 11, 2004Nuance typifies both Mr. Thornton's highly calibrated performance and the film's absence of unnecessary underlining.
San Jose Mercury NewsOctober 12, 2004Friday Night Lights is the real deal, a grim, in-your-face expose of one West Texas school's fanatical sports program.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsJune 03, 2016It succeeds best as a sadly iconic portrayal of America's love affair with Texas high school football.
Common Sense MediaDecember 24, 2010So much more than a football movie.
Window to the MoviesOctober 30, 2009What Friday Night Lights offers is the perspective that, for the people and young players caught up in this whirlwind, football simultaneously means everything and ultimately nothing.
Bright Lights Film JournalFebruary 02, 2009Friday Night Lights is a feel-good movie, but it's not real. It's a hard-hitting Hallmark greeting card. It's no wonder it appealed to Larry King %u2014 it's safe, easy, conventional, and feigns incisiveness.
Film4July 31, 2008Had Billy Bob Thornton not been so good in so many films, people would be talking about this as his greatest role.
Film ThreatApril 14, 2007The script spends at least as much time exploring the psychologies of the young players and the problems they face at home as it does rallying the audience behind their efforts on the field.
