...the action is richly detailed and thrillingly staged.

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

...not as authentic and uncompromised as it claims to be - more of a matinee fantasy than it wants to admit - but it is probably more entertaining as a result.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

He conceives of the story as if it were a gigantic piece of mood music.

Charles Taylor, Salon.com

...big, bold, and gloriously sweeping.

Mann wasn't thinking story, he was thinking scheme. Keep the eyes and ears dazzled, he reasons, and the substance will follow.
