Movie Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Owen GleibermanChristopher Columbus: The Discovery lacks even the misplaced energy of a camp folly. It's limp and exhausted -- a bloodless swashbuckler.
BrianOrndorf.com - 7/10 by Brian OrndorfThe drama never catches fire, cycling through the same beats of uncertainty and blame to a point of screen stasis. The opening driving montage of Manos: The Hands of Fate has more of a filmmaking zip.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 6/10 by Chris HicksIf this film were less superficial it might warrant some analysis about the way the character of Columbus is portrayed. But it's all so silly.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel - 5/10 by Candice RussellDry as an outdated textbook, scintillating as the droning of your worst schoolteacher, Christopher Columbus: The Discovery is a colossal disaster.
Seattle Times - 5/10 by Jeff ShannonThe film benefits greatly from the use of three totally authentic ship replicas, but the real thing -- as presented in the PBS series about Columbus -- is still much more inspiring.
Los Angeles Times - 4/10 by Peter RainerIt's not politically correct. It's also not cinematically correct, humanly correct or historically correct.
New York Times - 4/10 by Vincent CanbyExpensive, sloppy and, at its most ambitious, a frail reminder of the Warner Brothers swashbucklers that Michael Curtiz used to turn out with Errol Flynn.
Variety - 4/10 by Lisa NesselsonJohn Glen's take on the Genovese explorer adds up to perfectly serviceable commercial entertainment -- there are a few moments where Kirk Douglas or Charlton Heston would have felt right at home.
Chicago Tribune - 3/10 by Gene SiskelGeorge Corraface would look more comfortable in a Calvin Klein underwear ad than at the helm of a ship.
Chicago Sun-Times - 3/10 by Roger EbertThis movie takes one of history's great stories and treats it in such a lackluster manner that Columbus' voyage seems as endless to us as it did to his crew.
