| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 7, 2007

You watch this benumbed retelling of the ancient legend thinking, "This, too, shall pass."

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 6, 2007

Strikes a good balance between action and romance in this version of the medieval legend.

| Dec 18, 2006

No Wagner libretto and not much depth or soul.

| Original Score: C+ | Nov 27, 2006

[Tristan and Isolde] moves so sluggishly that someone must have been dosing the cast and crew with Nyquil.

Full Review | Original Score: C- | Nov 27, 2006

Tristan & Isolde isn't the sort of film you'd go out of your way for, but you could certainly do a lot worse.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 2, 2006

one of those movies you keep in that special shelf, to watch them when you're ready to kill yourself, just to make sure you made the right decision

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Aug 31, 2006

A movie in which all necessities are captured in two hours of ambitious celluloid, except for one critical anchoring piece: a heart.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 29, 2006

Funciona principalmente graças à maneira eficaz com que retrata o amor do casal-título, que jamais deixa de soar convincente.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 23, 2006

The production is grimy and listless, without any color to be seen, literal or figurative -- not even those little red dots meant to deter piracy. But then, there's not much danger of that.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 12, 2006

A strong visual style and a violent streak only partially undone by the PG-13 rating.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 8, 2006

Fans of historical epics will find much to like in the costuming, battle sequences and cinematography, but the love story itself is underdeveloped.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 6, 2006

Pretty and rather dull.

| May 6, 2006

The two leads, James Franco and Sophia Myles, generate a modicum of chemistry, despite being penned in by a clunky script.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 6, 2006

By removing the sorcery and operatic excess so synonymous with the story, the filmmakers conjure an affecting, pretty melodrama... with the emphasis more on mellow than drama.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 6, 2006

A compelling story washed down for a film that's likely only appeal to pre-teen girls.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | May 6, 2006

Unlike Franco's mop, no amount of teasing can keep this romance from falling flat.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 6, 2006

Swords clank, star-crossed lovers yearn, yadda yadda yadda.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 4, 2006

Frequently rubbish but nonetheless enjoyable swashbuckler, despite a tendency to take itself a bit too seriously. More fun than King Arthur.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 21, 2006
