The Wind and the Lion Ratings & Reviews
The Dissolve
Keith Phipps
The Wind And The Lion is a neat mixture of romanticization and realpolitik [...] The film is memorable for its action scenes [...] but also for the reflective moments from which those action scenes are born.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A bogus history lesson that's a mixture of fact and fiction.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
The marriage of epic romance and the epic romanticization of brutality.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
A kind of big-budget, all-star extravaganza the equivalent of which we really don't have today -- and for which mainstream movies are a little worse off.
Los Angeles Free Press
Ruth Batchelor
The script is an embarrassment the directing is stilted; the editor must have felt he was watching a Ping Pong match.
Los Angeles Free Press
Jacoba Atlas
A fascinating movie which brilliantly synthesizes traditional romantic concerns with an admirable understanding of American political ideology.
Gannett News Service
Bernard Drew
Milius is in love with everybody, there are no villains, and so there is no excitement.
Parallax View
Richard T. Jameson
Milius's incredible balancing act might have turned very rancid, yet miraculously his mixture of full-blown romanticism and a genial sense of its absurdity produces a deeply satisfying picture.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
An 'incoherent text' headier than any screen Kipling adaptation
