Industry Reviews
"...It is not only a spectacle the likes of which we may never see again, but also brings an elegance to the form not much seen before its release, either..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Lloyd Sachs (08/27/1993)
"[A] feast of visual detail....The film overflows with deep-focus vistas, towering sets, densely crowded battle sequences and the imposing presence of two remarkable physical specimens, Charlton Heston and Sophia Loren."
New York Times - Dave Kehr (01/29/2008)
"[I]t's clear that the director relished working in 70mm and having such rich resources at his disposal. As a spectacle, it's muscular and more dynamic than most."
Sight and Sound - Tom Charity (04/01/2008)
5 stars out of 5 -- "There are obvious resonances with today's religious tensions, but this is a story of much more, and it is handled superbly."
Ultimate DVD - Jan Vincent-Rudzki (04/01/2008)
