06/16/07
Much of the picture concerned itself with the building of the pyramid, not an exceptionally exciting event to watch.
05/13/08
No wars; no battles; one dinky sword fight. But much pageantry.
06/19/07
A cracking script and a bittersweet ironic ending satisfy those wanting their drama on an epic scale.
06/16/07
When the viewing senses begin to dull from the tremendous load of spectacle, the script and Hawks' direction wisely switch to sex and intrigue.
05/13/08
Blockbuster epics are usually not this thoughtfully put together.
01/11/08
Hawks forgoes any of those monstrous epic battle scenes, but as always most of his characters are made of shades of gray, which makes for fascinating confrontations throughout.
05/30/08
Fairly awesome if you can get beyond the clunky dialogue.
