Entertainment Reviews:
As Hank, Mr. Hiddleston leads with charm and a twang, keeping the beat with his shoulders, hips and feet. He looks as good as the movie...
New York Times
Rating: 3/5 --
Bleak biopics don't have to be grim (think of Raging Bull). But this one is neither illuminating nor able to make the most of the dark.

London Evening Standard
In Mark Abraham’s I SAW THE LIGHT, Tom Hiddleston puts in a performance as Williams that ranks with that of Joaquin Phoenix as Johnny Cash in I WALK THE LINE. And Hiddleston gets to do it in a better movie.
Los Angeles Times
[T]he British actor Tom Hiddleston delivers fine work as the troubled country music legend who died at just 29.
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: C- --
Hiddleston's performance desperately tries to keep "I Saw the Light" afloat, but it can't overcome some serious problems in the film's screenplay and direction.

One of the better music biopics.

Little White Lies
Rating: 3/5 --
Though there are "steel guitars and weeping fiddles" a-plenty, as a final comment sums up, and despite the good performances throughout, the film still feels like a missed opportunity to get to the heart of its intriguing subject.

Product Description:
Tom Hiddleston stars as country-music legend Hank Williams in this biopic about the performer's rise to stardom and tragic death at the age of 29. During his fascinating life -- from his youthful marriage to aspiring singer Audrey Mae Sheppard (Elizabeth Olsen) to his stint on a weekly radio show in Alabama to his residency at the Grand Ole Opry -- Williams struggles with alcoholism and addiction. I SAW THE LIGHT received its world premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival.
