[T]his film offers little insight into whatever battles - internal or external - Hesburgh must have fought. It's far too busy polishing that halo. May 7, 2019 | Rating: C- | Full Review…

Serving as a profile in courage whose hero was widely loved, it doesn't necessarily convince those of us who don't know the man that we needed to see a doc about him. May 2, 2019 | Full Review…

Nick Andert, Jerry Barca, and William Neal have fastened a pace as swift and handsome as its subject. This is an informative doc that's more concerned with being entertaining than explanatory. Homework, it is not. June 11, 2019 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

A glossy compilation of talking heads, archival footage and a narration based on Hesburgh's own journals, the film would feel right at home on a Sunday afternoon on the History Channel. May 29, 2019 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…
