Critics Consensus: Unbroken: Path to Redemption overestimates the power of its inspirational real-life story, settling for a dull drama that too often preaches to the choir.

Unnecessarily prolonged, and a fussy addition to a film about Zamperini that already exists.
It is unfortunate that instead of exploring the universal challenges and complexities of forgiveness it stays within the safer confines of preaching salvation to those who have already been persuaded.
There is a happy ending to the story - but, unfortunately, it doesn't arrive nearly soon enough.
Might stand as Cronk's least loathsome cinematic venture yet. It no doubt helps that he didn't write it.
There's a reason that Angelina Jolie's screen adaptation of Laura Hillenbrand's best-selling Unbroken left out most of the material covered in the book's second half. It just isn't very interesting.
For the most part... the script hews to the typical dramatic contours of a marriage troubled by unemployment, unresolved anger, and alcoholism-pro forma stuff, too blandly treated to inspire much more than indifference.
All the dramatic cues are there, and many of the faces convey an eagerness that is admirable, but every simpering scene of false sincerity moves to the rhythm of some shallow after-school special.
Glowing with effort above its pedigree, the film is an earnest and very commendable exploration.
When the sinner sinks to his knees, you know salvation can't be far behind.
inspiring movie and how Hero Zamperini lived out the rest of his life
This inspiring film, directed by Harold Cronk, is replete with themes of forgiveness, family, and faith.
It sounds so simple. And in Unbroken: Path to Redemption, it's portrayed exactly that way. You don't need a whole movie for that kind of experience. All you have to do is read the title.
