This religious-themed drama about a small-town mayor's personal crusade against "the war on Christmas" is about as subtle as the character's name -- Bob Revere.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
The sheer volume of what I like to call "eyebrow acting" -- in which thespian intensity is directly proportional to the angle and depth of one's forehead furrows -- is staggering.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post
Rotten
The patriot-packaged "Last Ounce of Courage" has been made with the conviction of true zealots, but also the competence of amateurs.
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
Rotten
The problem with this numbskull travesty isn't that it's fatuous and smug (which it is). It's that it's slack and dull.
Mark Feeney, Boston Globe
Rotten
Bookended by a pair of Ronald Reagan quotes, "Last Ounce of Courage" is pure preaching-to-the-choir poppycock.
