King David Ratings & Reviews
Apollo Guide
Ryan Cracknell
Little more than a timeline doodle instead of a deep and meaningful portrait.
Variety
Variety Staff
Though the overall problems may not be of his making, Richard Gere is of little help in the title role. Granted, he could have been truly awful (which he isn't), but he doesn't seem comfortable, either.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
Directed by Bruce Beresford in the worried manner of someone who feels it a triumph just to have gotten all the kings, prophets, soldiers, frond-waving townspeople, horses and donkeys on and off the screen on time.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
The film is stuffed with anonymous, identically bearded faces, and it drowns in them.
