A Bridge Too Far Reviews

It's an impressive experience, stunning, but in the end profoundly depressive. [Full review in Spanish]

| Aug 16, 2023

If you go to see it because you're a fan of any of the stars, you'll feel ripped off.

| May 5, 2023

As fine a war epic as you will ever see.

| May 23, 2022

The movie itself crumples from an excess of success, since by the time all the stars and rumbling war toys have justified their places in the budget, A Bridge Too Far has become an hour too long.

| Oct 26, 2021

Does have its flat spots, but does have a top-notch cast to keep boredom at bay.

| Apr 17, 2020

Running just under three hours, it's far too long but it's not bad. Sometimes it's quite good.

| Nov 1, 2019

Attenborough's direction is impeccable.

| Oct 23, 2019

The insistence to not have any loose ends slows down the story and drags it in too many different directions. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Jul 26, 2019

It would seem impossible to go wrong with such an incredible, all-star cast - which makes A Bridge Too Far such a frustrating misfire (no pun intended).

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 2, 2018

The movie's big and expensive and filled with stars, but it's not an epic. It's the longest B-grade war movie ever made.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 2, 2018

A movie too long.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 8, 2017

Impressive enough.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 8, 2017

A very long slog.

| Original Score: D | Jul 7, 2017

Futility and frustration are the overriding emotional elements in A Bridge Too Far, Joseph E. Levine's sprawling Second World War production.

| Dec 10, 2008

Consistently reinforces the horrors of war by depicting not only the disasterous military engagements and their toll on heroes, but also the witless political decisions that led to needless, excessive loss of life. [Blu-Ray]

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 1, 2008

Though overlong, muddled, ponderous and overbaked, it's not without some impressive moments.

| Original Score: C+ | May 29, 2007

An overworked, very old and very tired warhorse. Glossy, ponderous, predictable.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 10, 2006

Dozens of stars do not a classic WWII flick make. James Caan fares best of them all in a memorable sequence.

A gripping bit of cinema
