I Am Ali Ratings & Reviews
Punch Drunk Critics
Julian Lytle
Overall I Am Ali is a great film about a very influential person that inspired a lot of people all across the globe. I Am Ali is something that should be seen and shown to as many people as possible who don't know Muhammad Ali.
Behind The Lens
Debbie Lynn Elias
[W]hat sets this documentary apart are the interviews with two of Ali's daughters, Hana and Maryum, as well as son Muhammad Jr. and one of his ex-wives, and the inclusion of excerpts of audio tapes made by Ali himself over the years.
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
Retracing Muhammad Ali's vibrant life is an opportunity for audiences to reexamine American history, race relations, the civil rights movement, the antiwar movement and the sports world through the eyes of a perceptive black man.
EntertainmentTell
Stephen Silver
Well-trodden territory, but come on, it's Ali- you probably couldn't make a boring doc about him if you tried.

Rich Cline
Packed with never-released material, this documentary tells the life story of Muhammad Ali from angles we haven't seen before, even as it has a tendency to drift into hero worship.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
It doesn't break any new ground, not does it claim to, but it's likable and reasonably thorough.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
John Beifuss
The movie loses momentum the more it relies on what is supposed to be its novel aspect, the participation of Ali family members. The hagiography becomes tiresome...
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
Unless you have an insatiable appetite for goo-goo father-daughter talks, the recordings are tedious.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
It would be hard to watch the movie and not take something from it.
NPR
Chris Klimek
I Am Ali's contributions to the mountain of extant Ali scholarship are slight, but the privilege of eavesdropping on a man who inspired so many while he asks his little girl Maryum if she's yet determined her purpose on Earth is not.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
I Am Ali may not be the definitive look at an incredibly charismatic athlete, but it does provide authentic insights and observations from the family he raised and loved. Newcomers to the Ali legend will get a good idea of further areas they can explore.
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
"I Am Ali" merely reminds us of the boxer's appeal, without adding to our understanding.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
A composite portrait of a complicated figure. ... Lewins' film is an affectionate series of memories, as recalled by Ali's family and associates.
New York Daily News
Jordan Hoffman
"I Am Ali" goes the full 12 rounds with his complete biography.
The Dissolve
David Ehrlich
I Am Ali is less a film than a mechanism for monetizing an icon's personal life.
Village Voice
Michael Nordine
If you've been dying to hear the three-time heavyweight champion have endearingly mundane telephone conversations with his wife and kids, this is the documentary for you.
