Reaction: Sports films tend to not do so well in territories where the sport in question is less popular and Audible is no different, but thankfully the film did well enough in the US and Canada to make a good profit.

"Audible may not stretch out of the inspirational sports drama blueprint, but it makes up for that with the strength of the performances from its cast and by choosing a true story that is unique enough to stand out just enough." - Bryant Reeves, Oklahoma City Times

"Outside of the deaf football angle, everything other aspect of Audible feels safe and familiar like the cookie-cutter sports movies Disney used to regularly released. Audible is by no means terrible, just a bit too formulaic." - Gregory Fletcher, Los Angeles Times-Journal

"Football is a brutal sport, and this film shows a lot of the highs and lows of it. It's done so with a careful hand and clear direction, even if the ending is a bit saccharine. The real stars of the movie however is the cast, Paul Mescal and Asante Blackk especially do fine work as the star quarterback and the son of John Henry Moore. For fans of football, this is one to watch!" - Mitchell Parker, New York Times

Rated PG for sports action and some mild language
