An amateurish effort that boasts direct-to-video characteristics, the latest version disappoints in almost every production aspect.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten
Something soulless and empty, with all the mystery and grandeur of the tale just gone.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
The last of the summer's movie epics is a digitalized eyesore hobbled in every department by staggering incompetence.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Rotten
Just because you're rolling in the chariot doesn't make you Charlton Heston. That's a lesson this weightless, instantly disposable remake of the 1959 sword-and-sandal Oscar winner learns the hard way.
