Reviews

67	Entertainment Weekly - Unnamed A silly, impenetrable movie starring Sean Connery (attired in the dumbest costume ever) as a ponytailed barbarian who obeys a giant stone head.
63	Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert Every once in a while, a movie like that comes along; a movie you’ve got to see so that you, too, can be in the dark about it.
60	Time Out - Unnamed The script gradually falls apart into a mess of philosophical pottage under the whimsically pretentious Tolkien influence. But visually the film remains a sparkling display of fireworks, brilliantly shot and directed.
60	Variety - Unnamed A brilliant premise which unfortunately washes out in climactic sound and fury.
50	Village Voice - Andrew Sarris Zardoz quickly degenerates from a voyage through a labyrinth into an ego trip round and round the inside of a goldfish bowl. [28 Feb 1974, p.62]
