Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
The film too rarely confronts Knight with the vital difference between his predicament and theirs. It's guilty of sanctifying his struggle, and sidelining the people whose future it was for.

Free State of Jones has its moments of clumsiness, but it also has scenes that are rousing and a story that, as they say, makes learning fun.

Long-haired and bearded, McConaughey makes Knight a man full of righteous fire, but also thoughtful and as restrained as circumstances allow.

A great story, galumphingly told.

London Evening Standard
It's a powerful, moving story, but that doesn't mean it moves quickly. [It's a] very serious and often grim film.

McConaughey's charm is one of the positive aspects of the film and it is easy to see how he could command a group of disheartened people and get them to band together to fight back.

Free State Of Jones is an American Civil War-era saga that would surely have worked better as a box set TV drama than as a feature film. There is just too much information to pack in.
