The Bridge of San Luis Rey Ratings & Reviews
BrandonFibbs.com
Brandon Fibbs
The Bridge of San Luis Rey is a beautiful movie. The film's shooting locations are exquisite. The sets are stunning. The costumes are gorgeous. The actors are superlative. Too bad the movie sucks.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
How to turn an embarrassment of riches into an embarrassment, period.

Dragan Antulov
leaves audience with the same unanswered question as the one asked by its narrator

Chris Cabin
the worst film of the year... a fraud of the highest order
Newark Star-Ledger
Lisa Rose
Audiences may wonder why a picture with Robert De Niro, Kathy Bates and Harvey Keitel would be so bereft of hype. After you've endured the film, all 120 airless minutes, you'll understand the rationale behind the quiet release.
Village Voice
Ben Kenigsberg
An honorable but dull attempt to translate a neglected literary source to the screen.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
How bad could a movie be that features talent as serious as Robert De Niro, Kathy Bates, Gabriel Byrne, Harvey Keitel, F. Murray Abraham and Geraldine Chaplin? That bad, alas.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Though handsomely mounted, this parable of intersecting destinies and implacable tragedy is as lifeless as a wax tableau.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
The Bridge of San Luis Rey raises an important philosophical question: Is it better to fall to one's death from a rickety rope bridge overlooking a deep gorge or watch this miserable movie about several people sharing that awful fate?
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
An endless powdered-wigs-and-feathered-pen slog.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
So dully written and executed that you'll be wishing the production had collapsed instead of the swaying bridge of San Luis Rey.

Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone
The Viceroy states that they are 'surrounded by an ocean of boredom' - then you realize you're swimming in it.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Even though director-adaptor Mary McGuckian expended much creative energy trying to pump original spirit into the characters, she never brings any of them to life.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
William Arnold
None of the performances work.
Dallas Morning News
Philip Wuntch
Unlike the bridge, the movie unravels at a very slow pace.
Variety
Jonathan Holland
The stellar cast can do little to paper over the cracks in an awkward, unevenly-paced script that is composed of a series of sometimes-attractive scenes with little emotional undertow.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Visually sumptuous but dramatically muddled and confusing, The Bridge of San Luis Rey ultimately comes across as a soporific costume drama featuring a gallery of miscast stars.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Andrew Wright
Whatever the intentions of novelist and filmmaker, having the audience root for the bridge probably wasn't one of them.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Pedestrian...a high-minded snoozer studded with stars who all seem almost perversely miscast and directed in a grimly deliberate style designed to italicize every point.
