Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 7/10 by Emanuel LevyAdmittedly 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.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzThe pic is so bad, you can hear the dogs barking.
Movie Metropolis - 4/10 by John J. Puccio...the movie attempts to make a grand splash. Unhappily, the splash is more like a belly flop.
New York Times - 4/10 by A.H. WeilerThough it is lavish and sweeping in execution, The Silver Chalice, for all of its august and religious aspects, is not an imposing offering.
Variety - 2/10 by Variety StaffLike 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.
User Review - 4/10 by Bradley WFor a 50's religious themed story this is pretty bizarre stuff, with weird costumes and strange stage and set designs not at all matching the period. An adaptation of the bestseller, more famous for being Paul Newman's first starring role.
User Review - 4/10 by Greg WJeez, this so called epic is filled with poorly made matte paintings as backgrounds. And surprisingly most of the actors including Newman`s acting is terrible. it is if i was watching a school play.
User Review - 4/10 by Samantha Wread the book years ago, so I thought I'd see the movie
User Review - 4/10 by Panayiota KPaul 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.
User Review - 2/10 by Ashley HShort and Sweet: If you like overblown epics mired in tedium, or like a movie so bad it's almost good, then watch this movie. If you don't like any of the above but want some sword and sandals action, go watch the far superior "The Robe".
