Washington Post - Unnamed
Few American directors would dare to show as much over-the-top glee in their chosen craft as Sam Raimi does in Army of Darkness. [19 Feb 1993, Style, p.c7]

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
No matter what your opinion is of the movie, you're unlikely to be bored.

Chicago Tribune - Dave Kehr
Much of the movie's charm, in fact, is derived from its sense of its own instant disposability. Raimi has created the cinematic equivalent of fast food-efficient, unassuming and seriously regressive. It may not be much good for you in the end, but consuming it is loads of fun. [19 Feb 1993, Friday, p.C]

Variety - Unnamed
Blending almost nonstop violence with humorous parody, Sam Raimi's latest excursion into horror-kitsch seems more like an irreverent "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court."

Chicago Reader - Jonathan Rosenbaum
Enjoyably campy hokum.
