Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzIf this is the greatest story ever told I can imagine how horrid is the worst story ever told.
Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) - 9/10 by Jeffrey WesthoffYes, the celebrity cameos distract, but the film focuses more on Jesus' message than the overated King of Kings If you've never seen it in widescreen, you are missing a revelation.
Apollo Guide - 8/10 by Scott WeinbergThe most unintentionally hilarious biblical epic ever to grace the silver screen.
New York Times - 7/10 by Bosley CrowtherMr. Stevens has done it in a generous and often stunning style. And the quality of his reverence should captivate the piously devout.
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) - 6/10 by Bob BloomOne of the most boring movies ever made; if Jesus was a wooden in life as he is in this movie, he would not have attracted one disciple.
Creative Loafing - 6/10 by Matt BrunsonHammy performances by Charlton Heston as John the Baptist, Telly Savalas as Pilate, and, in the most notorious bit of casting, John Wayne(!) as a Roman soldier overseeing the crucifixion ("Truly, this man was the son of God," drawls the Duke).
Variety - 4/10 by Variety StaffThe prophets should speak with respect of this $20 million Biblical epic.
User Review - 10/10 by Brian GThis as well as Jesus of Nazareth are films which should be watched more than once a year for the rest of your life! : )
User Review - 10/10 by Anthony MA fantastic rendering of the New Testament and the life of Christ.
User Review - 10/10 by Todd HNot the best treatment of the life of Christ out there, but Charlton Heston as John the Baptist ruled. Max von Sydow's Jesus could have been a little less wooden and ethereal.
