Strong performances and exquisite, breathtaking cinematography barely compensate for a pedestrian, underwhelming screenplay.
August 19, 2013
A bit on the bland side, but as a plus, Jim Caviezel cracks his first on-screen smile in over a decade.
August 30, 2013
Despite some fine performances, the film has difficulty finding a consistent tone, and the well-intentioned script emphasizes melodrama and sentimentality.
August 21, 2013
Savannah does attempt to tell the story of the friendship of those two accomplished men, but does so in a manner that is so astonishingly tone deaf, confused and narrowly focused...

"Savannah" should win some sort of award for most amount of times you'll ask, "They roped that guy into this turkey, too?"
August 26, 2013
Savannah's backstory may sound inscrutable to the world outside Southern Georgia social clubs; that's because it is.
August 23, 2013
A movie that's essentially only of local interest.
August 21, 2013
The movie's story is limp, its romances are flightless and-despite the talented cast-its performances are toothless.
August 20, 2013
The story overflows with reverence but is drastically short on passion or suspense ...
August 22, 2013
The film's tale ends up being less rich than its lovely Georgia settings.

This is a Southern "Downton Abbey," minus the loopy plot turns and wisecracks that make that series so addictive.
