Will remind filmgoers that one of the chief pleasures of going to the movies is a good old-fashioned swoon

Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Yun-Fat is magnetic and majestic, and the story, no matter that it is not entirely true, continues to fascinate.

Chicago Reader
Lisa Alspector
A musical number or two might have balanced the overdetermined politics and spectacle in this version.

Stephen Holden
Has the rambling pace of an episodic 1950s costume drama.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer
William Arnold
It pales in comparison to its two classic predecessors, and also just generally feels like one too many trips to the well.
