Reaction: We definitely weren't expecting the biggest box office bomb of the season with this one. It joins Fractured as sports films that have bombed heavily at the box office this season.
"While Matt Damon is a lot of fun as the fool ill-equipped for the monumental job he has found himself in, the rest of the cast feel like forgettable one-joke characters who never really get a whole lot of breathing room." - Chris Price, Boston Herald
"Soderbergh and Damon are always fun together and this surprisingly true story film is no different even if some of the film's jokes fell flat. It works more than it doesn't." - Richard Park, Globe and Mail
"Faster, Higher, Stronger is an entertaining look at one of the most infamously disastrous sporting events in history. Director Steven Soderbergh and writer Mo Buck tackle the film with a surprisingly light touch that keeps things moving quickly." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com
Rated PG-13 for some language and thematic material
