Critic Reviews for The Work and the Glory III: A House Divided

All Critics (5) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (1)

The film has leaden dialogue and action without drama: It isn't much more intellectually developed than a grade-school historical pageant.

February 1, 2007 | Rating: 2/5

Richard Nilsen
Arizona Republic
Engaging for most of its running time, but it ends things on a remarkably unsatisfying note.

Eric D. Snider

In less than a decade, Mormon cinema has evolved from an easily dismissed curiosity to respectable art, and much of the credit belongs to "The Work and the Glory" series.

Phil Villarreal
Arizona Daily Star
Some TV miniseries spend double what executive producer Larry H. Miller invested to make this trilogy, without getting the rich historical flavor this saga has provided.

November 22, 2006 | Rating: 3/4

Sean P. Means
Salt Lake Tribune
The film does boast surprisingly good production values, considering its limited budget.
