For all the expected beats that Claydon and Moniz utilize, the directors still manage to make a film that is surprisingly charming.

9/10

Racewalkers weaves a classic redemption story with sharp writing, layered characters, and a general sense of good will that sets it apart from anything else out there at the moment.

3.5/5

With equal parts slapstick and sincerity, Racewalkers molds a handful of sports cliches into a crowd-pleaser about perseverance and redemption that finds emotional depth by not punching down.
