Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Giant, for all its complexity, is a strong contender for the year's top-film award.
– Bosley Crowther,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
A real movie is big, grand, magnificent and regales you with all the power that movies can wield upon a viewer's imagination and spirit. George Stevens' 1956 production, Giant, is a real movie.
– Douglas Pratt,
Hollywood Reporter,
14 Jun 2003
fresh:
Stevens' sprawling epic of Texan life, taken from Edna Ferber's novel, strives so hard for Serious Statements that it ends up as a long yawn.
– Geoff Andrew,

fresh:
Much of it is awful, but it's almost impossible not to be taken in by the narrative sprawl.
– Dave Kehr,
Chicago Reader,
13 Nov 2007
fresh:
An excellent film which registers strongly on all levels, whether it's in its breathtaking panoramic shots of the dusty Texas plains; the personal, dramatic impact of the story itself, or the resounding message it has to impart.
