Chicago Tribune
There's something light and insubstantial about this movie. It almost floats away as you watch it. - 50
The Hollywood Reporter
Glorious so-bad-it's-good entertainment. - 50
Entertainment Weekly

Variety
Lacks the consistent tone, pace and point of view for either a science fiction thriller or medieval war adventure. - 38
ReelViews
Boring and repetitive. - 30
Los Angeles Times
Donner's most calamitous mistake, however, was forgetting to light the screenplay on fire and catapult it from the nearest trebuchet. - 30
The New York Times
Doesn't have a genuinely human moment. - 25
New York Daily News
