Reviews

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
As embodied by Liam Neeson, Rob Roy is a tremendous protagonist -- a naive man whose belief in honor and whose love for a woman, family, and clan make him a figure to cheer for.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
This is a splendid, rousing historical adventure, an example of what can happen when the best direction, acting, writing and technical credits are brought to bear on what might look like shopworn material.
60
Washington Post - Desson Thomson
Thanks to screenwriter Alan Sharp's fast-moving scenario featuring a healthy array of rape, pillage, burning, deceit, swordfighting, treachery and murder, it's a watchable hoot.

The New York Times - Janet Maslin
Rob Roy is best watched for local color and for its hearty, hot-blooded stars.

San Francisco Chronicle - Peter Stack
Like a coffee-table book, it looks inviting and teases you with sumptuous photography but leaves you cold.
