Critic Reviews of "Life on the Line"
VarietyNovember 18, 2016John Travolta dodges downed power lines, but can't escape the clichés.
RogerEbert.comNovember 18, 2016This is one of those "based on true events" movies that give you the distinct feeling that the true events deserved better.
New York TimesNovember 17, 2016A terrible movie about the workers who keep the electrical grid functioning.
Los Angeles TimesNovember 17, 2016This is the kind of salt-of-the-earth story that American filmmakers don't bother with much anymore - although frankly, there's not much here to convince anyone they should.
New York Daily NewsNovember 17, 2016"Life on the Line" is supposed to be a moving story about men working electrical lines. Viewers, however, might require a high-voltage shock just to endure it.
Village VoiceNovember 17, 2016The country songs that play over the credits offer more arresting detail about life on the line than the film manages in 100 minutes.
Common Sense MediaJanuary 19, 2017The filmmakers behind this earnest, heartfelt drama truly want to honor the brave men who do this job, but the movie is packed with cliches and doesn't really grasp the details of hard work.
We Got This CoveredNovember 18, 2016A listless cast and a crushingly flat script fail to illuminate the lives of high-wire electrical workers in Life on the Line, which instead resorts to tired story beats and a false sense of self-righteousness.
Blu-ray.comNovember 17, 2016The real men and women who work on the country's power grids deserve better than a periodically ludicrous, mostly tedious study of honor and teamwork.
Slant MagazineNovember 14, 2016For a film about such a singular profession, Life on the Line offers surprisingly little insight into linemen's day-to-day labor.
