Variety‘Young Washington’ Review: George Washington Goes to War in an Angel Studios Film That’s Like the Great-Man Biographies You Read in Grade Schoolvariety.com"Young Washington" is like one of those great-man biographies you read in grade school. Released by Angel Studios for the Fourth of July, the movie is intended as a bit of likably square, neo-traditional, right-wing-adjacent counterprogramming. But say this much for it: In its slightly stodgy life-of-an-American-plaster-saint way, Jon Erwin’s coming-of-age military adventure film doesn’t make being George Washington look any easier than it was.
