Review of El Cid (1961)

By Alfonso A (27) on 21 Oct 2009

An epic in every sense. Has it all love, courage, honor, large scale battles, duels with two of the screen's epic stars…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Brent G (270) on 11 Aug 2009

A great epic filled with great characters. Incredibly cheezy, but the scale of the action scenes make up for it…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Okuz A (41) on 05 Jul 2009

The actings great. Charlton Heston and Sophia Loren are really good as a couple. But the film is ultimately sloppily paced and can be boring at times…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Paul C (2,626) on 21 Jun 2009

Martin Scorsese has deemed this film one of the greatest epic films ever made, but I may have to disagree with that statement…

I'm sorry, I just. . . I just couldn't do it. Cut it off halfway through…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By James S (2,117) on 28 Feb 2009

A classic historical epic. I always have to repeat the jousting scenes…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Maija K (24) on 26 Feb 2009

A film that stands well the test of time. Romance, battles, action…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By H-P K (103) on 26 Feb 2009

Surpricingly good action, acting and the direction is perfect. Contains stereotypes but the theme is relevant nonetheles…

By Mark S (2,772) on 17 Feb 2009

Classic, grand, glorious epic…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By William R (799) on 27 Jan 2009

A gorgeous period piece in the tradition of Cecil B. Demille…

Being the good homeschooler I was, I saw this movie when I was about eight…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Dave P (388) on 08 Jan 2009

It's Epic - the spectacle and pageantry :) A story that needed to be told…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Aren B (116) on 31 Dec 2008

El Cid is an awesome classic historical epic about a hero of medieval Spain. Charleton Heston is great in the title role…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Adam W (1,422) on 08 Dec 2008

The ending more than makes up for a bit of the 60's camp that overshadows many moments of the film…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Steve W (2,154) on 29 Nov 2008

An underrated, majestic, and breathtaking epic film…

Review of El Cid (1961)

By Will M (506) on 26 Nov 2008

Unusually smart epic with a statuesque Heston and a high-nervous Loren. Worthwhile spectacle…
