His performance earned favorable reviews from critics and is widely regarded as his breakthrough role. “With captivating blue eyes and filthy blond hair, Leto embodies the rock-star image Prefontaine portrayed, and he appears natural in blazing performances on the track, as well as off, where Pre portrayed a rude, aggressive approach,” wrote Peter Stack of the San Francisco Chronicle.
