Critic Reviews for Saving Jessica Lynch

All Critics (2) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (1)

Aside from a single hint that the president of the United States is watching the rescue with interest, Saving Jessica Lynch... has nothing fresh to add to the story, and even omits to mention how the Pentagon played the press the first time around.

Handsomely produced and legitimately emotional at points, "Saving Jessica Lynch" isn't a great film, but it is decent.
