American Flyers Reviews

Wears its cliches well.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 16, 2022

Good-hearted '80s biking movie has cursing, sex.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 8, 2016

Disjointed and underdeveloped.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 4, 2008

Unfortunately, overblown production just pumps hot air in too many directions and comes up limp.

| Aug 4, 2008

A pleasant, straight-down-the-road, clich-ridden ride.

Classic '80s sports movie. Surprising twist, and thrilling bike scenes.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 14, 2003

Its overwelming sentimentality obscures the excitement of the race and some fine performances.

| May 24, 2003

The performances aren't bad, but they aren't good enough to give the film the heft it doesn't otherwise have.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 20, 2003

There are certainly worse ways to spend 100 minutes - particularly if you're a bicycling enthusiast.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 15, 2003

Thankfully, Costner and Grant are able to overcome the bumpy screenplay and ride American Flyers to a satisfying, if predictable, conclusion.

Full Review | Original Score: 71/100 | Jan 1, 2000

American Flyers is shaky at the core, because it tries to tap-dance around its own central issues.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000
