Die Nibelungen: Siegfried Ratings & Reviews
Midwest Film Journal
Joshua Polanski
One of the great achievements of the silent era.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Lang's emotional distance allows the story to unfold without sensationalism or judgement, preserving its critical moments of ambiguity.
Christian Science Monitor
Velona Pilcher
Once Siegfried has left the smithy and started into that forest... we enjoy one of those rare times when an hour or so of motion-picture screen can recall such names as Wagner, Appia. Van Gogh, Beowulf, Malory... and still hold its own.
Alternate Ending
Tim Brayton
These are huge spaces for huge themes and a big story that had come to this movie with centuries of authority and dignity behind it.
LIFE
Robert E. Sherwood
Siegfried has been produced on a mammoth scale -- as of course it should be -- and is set forth in terms of utter unreality -- again as it should be.
The New Republic
Edmund Wilson
The producers seem to have been mistaken in going in for straight drama rather than for romance and magic.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Grim retelling of medieval legend.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
[An] astonishing, five-hour fantasy.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
The medium's every cog and wheel marshaled into a mammoth-production that nevertheless exudes a defiantly personal blend of fantasy and politics
Variety
Variety Staff
Lang's direction is consistent, and achieves plasticity, dignity, and very nearly power.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It's awesome as spectacle, but the story takes a long time to develop.
