Review For Movie Copperhead
So much taste and intelligence went into these finely wrought costumes, props and sets in order to tell a story of such tedium.Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post
Though the tale, based on a novel by Harold Frederic, remains relevant to our time, the film is too self-conscious and tedious for the message it delivers.
Neil Genzlinger-New York Times
If every war has more than one side, this story of one man who dares to stand against the tide of history has a contemporary relevance that remains uncontested.
Rex Reed-New York Observer
Sluggish drama ... defines this morality lesson about the unimpeachable virtue of loving thy neighbor.
Nick Schager-Village Voice
Less like a peering examination of the turbulent political environment than a reenactment of a Ken Burns documentary-or a museum tour.
Matt Patches-Time Out New York
Aside from the PBS-re-enactment music, the film's primary problem is that it lacks a clear central plot.
Kerry Lengel-Arizona Republic
I wish "Copperhead" were better, because it tells a story we haven't seen before, and creates a world that films have rarely shown us.
Matt Zoller Seitz-RogerEbert.com
For this audience, Ron Maxwell's film will prove entertaining and though-provoking, at the very least. For the rest, it is unlikely to provide much dramatic sustenance.
Christopher Schobert-The Playlist
A work every bit as turgid and baldly sentimental as the centerpiece lecture at a convention of historical reenactors.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com
Its budgetary limitations show. Many scenes could have used additional takes to polish the performances, and the often-poor sound recording is a shortcoming, particularly with stylized period dialogue. The leads show surprisingly little range.
Frank Lovece-Film Journal International
Civil War drama may raise questions about history.
Sandie Angulo Chen-Common Sense Media
Despite good performances throughout the film, the pacing of Copperhead is slow, with many long takes and establishing shots that seem a bit over-indulgent.
Christine N. Ziemba-Paste Magazine
Ron Maxwell's film, from beginning to end, exudes all the excitement of a textbook history lesson.
Kenji Fujishima-Slant Magazine
