...Race pushes things aside that could do with more exploration...

The film is woefully disjointed, frustratingly removed from its lead character, and overly sanitized.

The bare necessities are there, the performances are competent, and there are some strong moments but Race suffers from a lack of ambition. It's too safe and that quality mutes its impact and limits its ability to be more than a history lesson.

Race means well, and it certainly wants to tell Owens' story as completely as it can. Yet Hopkins and company never quite get there, the whole enterprise coming up a little short of the finish line as it lumbers its way down the track.

Race is the most timid, lackadaisical movie that could have been made out of potentially classic material.

Race isn't a bad film or biopic for that matter. It's beautifully shot, informative, and has some fantastic actors helming it. However, that's exactly what you'd expect.

A glossy, superficial biopic set in a historical context that begs for more, Race can at least claim to be one of the two best movies ever made about Olympic hero/Hitler-embarrasser Jesse Owens.

Given all its volatile and exhilarating ingredients, it's disappointing that Race doesn't have greater impact.

Where is Owens in all of this? By the end of Race, we don't know much more about him as an individual than we did when the movie began.

ace is a history lesson, personal profile and a crowd pleaser.

A wallpaper-thin but sentimentally effective hagiography.

Race follows the pattern of so many other sports biopics in which it's white patronage that makes black triumphs possible.
