With a very good part for a change, Sutherland invests the imposing Bowerman with a host of subtly expressed attitudes toward his most illustrious charge.
Todd McCarthy, Variety

Without Limits wins as a sports film precisely because it's not really about sports or a great victory.
Louis B. Parks, Houston Chronicle
Fresh
Without Limits is an admirable departure from the norm, but its greatest strength doubles as an undermining weakness.
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail

As Pre, Billy Crudup is dynamite -- a magnetic star presence who's unafraid to show how Pre's drive also makes him a bit of a prick.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
