Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
A rare dud from two-time Oscar-winning director Ang Lee, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk marches in formation but stirs little awe.
MTV
Amy Nicholson
Lee's use of High Frame Rate technology becomes a literal window into Billy Lynn's head. We're not supposed to feel comfortable.
Vox
Emily St. James
This film struggles to translate Fountain's novel into something with its own strong point of view.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
It's all a giant cacophony of artifice masquerading as something important and meaningful.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Everything feels stilted and strangely flat.
Newsweek
Tom Shone
For a movie about the aftershocks of battle, Billy Lynn feels curiously tranquil.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
An interesting story buoyed by good acting that feels - and this is a lazy word but the appropriate one - weird.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
This halftime walk is more like a long slog.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The movie doesn't really work. The script is all too faithful to Fountain's florid brand of not-quite-human poetry. The thesis lines thud into place.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
Lee might be a pioneer, but what good is that when he leaves his story behind?
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Ang Lee's unprecedented use of digital technology makes for a hyperreal immersion into the mind of a traumatized soldier.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A gifted director ruining a good book by literalizing what a writer made us visualize for ourselves.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
[Suffers from an] uneven tone, inelegant editing, and scattered narrative.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
Director Ang Lee has taken the very internal novel by Dallas author Ben Fountain - a work that tries to get into the head of an Iraq War soldier -- and opened it up into a surprisingly effective meditation on a soldier's homefront experience.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Tirdad Derakhshani
Overheated, existential melodrama or cool, sharp-edged satire? Despite his genius as a filmmaker, Lee simply can't give us both at the same time.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
The acting and script are so strong that the picture is an outstanding achievement even in the 2D version that most people will see.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Taking place mostly over the course of a single day, it's a smart and languorous film that finds time to luxuriate in conversations and to create a feeling for small-town American life.
TIME Magazine
Stephanie Zacharek
Visually, the picture gives us almost no room to breathe, which leaves us only a few tight corners in which to feel.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
It gets the little things wrong - and that matters - but the broad outlines right.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
By the end of the film, rather than settling into the variation in the medium and forgetting about it, Lee has only managed to make us hyper-aware of the artificiality of the entire movie-making process.
