Reaction: Another big surprise hit for the studio this season. With McCain this season and Of Rocks and Sand last season, Chris Pine is definitely starting to cement himself as a star for LRF. It's also another hit for the studio from Clint Eastwood, making him 4-for-4 at the box office for LRF.
"Chris Pine gives the best performance of his career to date in a very difficult role, both to play and to try to live up to, in American hero John McCain from ages 30-46. He has to be an immediate contender for the Best Actor GRA." - Charles Yost, Oregonian
"While the film loses a little steam and confidence in its story telling in the latter post-war bits, the first two-thirds of the film is so well done that it is pretty easy to look past some of the weak spots." - Charles Triano, Los Angeles Times
"McCain's story has long been destined for the big screen treatment, and it is brought to life in an efficient and entertaining fashion from the steady direction of the legendary Clint Eastwood and the sure-handed writing of Dwight Gallo." - Paul Landon, Film School Rejects
