American Heart Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
It's a pity that the plot culminates in a slew of melodramatic contrivances that leave a lot of strands hanging.
TV Guide
Never feels real for a second.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Not since "Straight Time" with Dustin Hoffman has there been a film that more convincingly depicted the plight of the ex-con in his struggle to earn an honest living than the engaging "American Heart."
Variety
Todd McCarthy
A gritty, well-meaning drama about a father and son on the fringes of society.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
The film begins as a gritty look at down-and-out lives in Seattle, but becomes a more conventional father-son melodrama, though the acting Jeff Bridges and Edward Furlong is good.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
A gritty tale about a down-and-out father and son who inch toward a loving relationship
New York Times
Janet Maslin
It's time to recognize Mr. Bridges as the most underappreciated great actor of his generation.
