Now Steve Prefontaine can be immortalized for the complex and shining star that he was.
USA Today

The Super-16mm film stock gives the film a grainy look that blends in artfully with the vintage videotape of ABC's '72 Olympics coverage.
January 01, 2000
James tries too hard to bring closure to Pre's life, and, as a result, strays a little too far into melodrama. The tearful reminiscences at the end, not to mention some of the stuff at the funeral, lay it on thickly.

Nothing more than a glorified, profanity-sprinkled made-for-TV movie, from the cast right down to the shallow treatment of its subject.

With its moving final scenes and well-developed subject, the story of Steve Prefontaine is a decidedly well-told American tale.

A touching, poignant movie with a great performance by Leto

Disappointingly colorless and squeaky-clean.

One of the better sports movies to come from Hollywood in recent years.

Though it is always pleasant and agreeable, this film has the bland and undemanding texture that characterizes movies made for network TV.
January 01, 2000
Here is a sports movie in the tradition of the best sportswriting, where athletes are portrayed warts and all. You do not have to be nice to win races, but you have to be good.
Variety

Prefontaine gets to the finish line in reasonable shape despite plenty of sloppy running along the way.

Steve Prefontaine must have been something special -- everyone says so -- but there's no magic on the screen.
