School Ties
The film is about David Green, a Jewish man who received a football scholarship to a prestigious junior high school in the 1950s. David seems to feel the pressure to hide the fact that he is a Jew for a long time. In the end, when he becomes a big man and reveals his background, things seem to be developing.

In the real world, it's more likely that Greene's working-class background would work harder against his acceptance at a snooty prep school than his religious beliefs, but School Ties largely ignores this angle.

Fraser, O'Donnell, Damon and Affleck would all go on to have much hyped careers, and occasionally make better films than this overbearingly worthy classroom drama.

Director Robert Mandel, best known for the flashy techno-thriller F/X, brings a surprisingly sensitive touch to this earnest story of intolerance.
April 03, 2005
Well-intentioned (and only occasionally mawkish) tale of college-boy anti-semitism.

Stirring movie may be too heavy for some tweens.
October 01, 2006
Though well-intentioned as a message picture, the film is too schematic and predictable, and ultimately may be more significant in featuring a new cohort of actors, including Brandon Frazer, Chris O'Donnell, Matt Damon, and others.

More notable perhaps for a roster of future stars and Oscar winners than for its unexceptional plot, this well executed film nevertheless has its charms.

The boys put in fine performances but sadly the script lacks the depth of what could have been a challenging story.
January 01, 2000
There's a dramatic imbalance to Dick Wolf and Darryl Ponicsan's screenplay.
May 20, 2003
School Ties has a leafy, genteel look that is somehow less than convincing, perhaps because the hairdos are too tidy and the resemblances to other prep-school stories too clear.

This is a bewildering mixture of fairly accomplished storytelling, awkward contrivances in the script, and lies in the overall conception so egregious they undercut any pretensions the film might have to social seriousness.
May 12, 2001
Good intentions go for naught as director Robert Mandel (F/X) pounds home every contrivance in the script by Darryl Ponicsan (Taps).
