Reviews


80
Variety - Todd McCarthy
Genuinely spectacular and historically quite respectable, Ridley Scott's latest epic is at its strongest in conveying the savagery spawned by fanaticism.
80
The Hollywood Reporter - Kirk Honeycutt
Fulfills the requirements of grand-scale moviemaking while serving as a timely reminder that in the conflict between Christianity and Islam it was the Christians who picked the first fight.

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Kingdom of Heaven may have problems, but it delivers.
75
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Odd as it is to say, Kingdom of Heaven loses its momentum the more Balian gets religion.
70
Time - Richard Corliss
The battle skirmishes here mix sudden violence with slow-motion artistry. The attractive cast can sell an obsession or articulate a conundrum with equal fervor.
