...a fascinating biography, and the film is to be commended for bringing her story to audiences.

Te-Ata is not a good film, but it comes from a good place.

While Nathan Frankowski's biopic has the saccharine, deliberate feel of a Hallmark movie, that doesn't make the woman at its center any less inspirational.

Village Voice
The film rarely soars with the kind of authentic spirit and passion needed to fully sell this decidedly old-fashioned material.

Los Angeles Times
Lacking both fluidity and complexity, "Te Ata" is a functional but one-note tribute told through educational storytelling that, unlike its subject, doesn't manage to inspire.

Variety
This inspiring tale of the early 20th Century Chickasaw stage performer and Native culture popularizer Mary "Te Ata" Thompson, although well-played by "The New World's" Q'orianka Kilcher, is told in the least inspired way imaginable. A real shame.
