Reviews

ReelViews -
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 -
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.

|
Washington Post -
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 -
Rob Roy is best watched for local color and for its hearty, hot-blooded stars.

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