Like the Thomas B. Costain book, the picture is overdrawn and sometimes tedious, but producer-director Victor Saville still manages to instill interest in what's going on, and even hits a feeling of excitement occasionally.
Though it is lavish and sweeping in execution, The Silver Chalice, for all of its august and religious aspects, is not an imposing offering.
The pic is so bad, you can hear the dogs barking.
...the movie attempts to make a grand splash. Unhappily, the splash is more like a belly flop.
Admittedly dull, overlong and kitschy, the film was dismissed as embarrassing debut for Paul Newman, yet a closer look shows the attributes that would make him a mega-star.
A tedious religious epic that wasted the talents of many.
Paul Newman's most despised movie (by himself especially) is pretty bad.
Dreadful epic noteworthy mainly for being Newman's feature debut.
Paul looks good in his toga but otherwise is absolutely dreadful in his screen bow. It shows the advantage of the studio contract system that this wasn't the end of his career. His two follow-ups studio assignments, Somebody Up There Likes Me and The Rack, did a great deal to restore his reputation and put him on the superstar track.
