The Gospels have as many movies as Marvel in 2014, so we can only hope for an Avengers-style Biblical alliance next…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By James Verniere (1,180) for Boston Herald (1,433) on 28 Feb 2014

How much of this is new and how much has already aired on the History Channel? The film is so mediocre it hardly matters…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Teddy Durgin (233) for Screen It! (1,437) on 28 Feb 2014

The film is willing. But its spirit is weak…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Willie Waffle (1,383) for WaffleMovies.com (1,380) on 28 Feb 2014

The first hour is klunky. However, the rest of Son of God is a dramatic and compelling telling of The Passion Play, especially because of Morgado…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Steven Rea (1,872) for Philadelphia Inquirer (3,920) on 28 Feb 2014

They have turned the Christ saga into cheese. As in cheesy…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Stephan Lee (11) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 28 Feb 2014

At best, this version succeeds as a Sunday school supplement. But the blandness is enough to make you long for Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Sheila O'malley (474) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 28 Feb 2014

Son of God's earnest-ness is not necessarily a strike against it; it was made by earnest people who want to spread the word…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Martin Tsai (390) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 27 Feb 2014

If The Bible was CliffsNotes for the Scriptures, Son of God is the cheat sheet…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Justin Chang (1,535) for Variety (12,700) on 27 Feb 2014

A clumsily edited feature-length version of five episodes from History’s hugely popular 10-hour miniseries “The Bible,” this stiff, earnest…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 27 Feb 2014

It is the story of the faith in which I was raised, and it is a story told here with great reverence and extremely faithful renditions of scenes…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Ann Hornaday (1,919) for Washington Post (9,851) on 27 Feb 2014

Don’t expect to see a great film, or even a very good one…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Nicolas Rapold (488) for The New York Times (9,847) on 27 Feb 2014

Son of God may have hit the mark if part of the goal was to create a portrait flat enough to allow audience members to project their own feelings…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 27 Feb 2014

Son of God is a narrative shambles, more thudding than thunderous, shot with no spirit or distinction, always feeling like a sprawling TV miniseries…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Jordan Hoffman (1,025) for Film.com (1,892) on 27 Feb 2014

For a movie with the ostensible mission of spreading the Gospel, it does a poor job of speaking to anyone except the faithful…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Abhimanyu Das (25) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 27 Feb 2014

The film plays for much of its length like a terrible sketch comedy with one-dimensional caricatures shuffling listlessly through a succession…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Beliefnet (937) on 27 Feb 2014

Thoughtful, reverent, and dignified, made by believers for believers…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Sean O'connell (919) for CinemaBlend (829) on 27 Feb 2014

The movie is the textbook definition of preaching to the choir, [going] through the holy motions and playing it incredibly safe…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Katherine Monk (493) for Canada.com (402) on 27 Feb 2014

Biblical metaphor gets nailed to the boards of literal translation…

Review of Son of God (2014)

By Matt Prigge (853) for Metro (930) on 27 Feb 2014
