This film is only superficially illuminating, briefly informative; the drama is only mildly engaging, the imprisonment distantly horrific. It insists upon keeping us at an arm's length for its not inconsiderable running time.

Long Walk to Freedom is a solidly crafted drama and a timely reminder of Mandela's achievements. The younger generation and those who haven't read the autobiography may find it fascinating.

Nelson Mandela gets the Classics Illustrated treatment with this handsome, undemanding biopic.

Aside from some youthful randiness early in the film, it wouldn't be out of place at a state funeral.
