- 50Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreIt truly works on the level too many other faith-based dramas do, as comfort food for the faithful, an altar call for the already saved.
- 50Chicago TribuneKatie WalshChicago TribuneKatie WalshHunt gives it as all as the tortured Louis, but Patterson is the heart and soul of the film, giving a far more interesting performance as his long-suffering wife.
- 50The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe movie delivers an inspiring message about the power of faith and forgiveness, which is its obvious raison d'etre. But it does so in the sort of formulaic, cliched and simplistic manner that afflicts so many inspirational films.
- 50RogerEbert.comRogerEbert.comThis message is preaching to the choir, much more likely to reassure those who are already believers than to engage those who are seeking answers.
- 42The A.V. ClubLawrence GarciaThe A.V. ClubLawrence GarciaUnbroken: Path To Redemption ultimately preaches forgiveness—a message that, in and of itself, is unobjectionable.
- 40VarietyJoe LeydonVarietyJoe LeydonIt would be unfair, and not entirely accurate, to dismiss “Path to Redemption” as irredeemably dull and without merit.
- 15TheWrapCarlos AguilarTheWrapCarlos AguilarZoran Popovic’s uninspired cinematography, paired with barely credible production design, give “Path to Redemption” the aesthetic feel of a low-budget reenactment segment in a basic cable history show. The performances operate at about the same level; no one gets to shine beyond over-acting during a few emotionally charged scenes.
