Rotten
Overlength of perhaps 30 minutes serves to magnify some weaknesses of Robert Bolt's original screenplay, to dissipate the impact of the performances, and to overwhelm outstanding photography and production.

An awe-inspiringly tedious lump of soggy romanticism.

Douglas Pratt, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten
It doesn't transfigure the world. It embalms it.
Vincent Canby, New York Times
Rotten
A disappointing failure of tone, a lush and overblown self-indulgence in which David Lean has given us a great deal less than meets the eye.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
