Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Heady theological badminton, as vigorously thoughtful as it is piously historical.

fresh:
Shot on 100 locations in three countries and outfitted with impressive props, costumes, art direction and medieval streets, Luther makes up for what it lacks in vigorous storytelling with such production values.

fresh:
A few too many amateurish techniques and oversimplified confrontations hold Luther back a notch or two from greatness, and stamp it instead as entertaining Lutheran cheerleading.

fresh:
About as swashbuckling as a history lesson gets.

rotten:
Luther is rarely presented as anything other than a preacher. He preaches even in casual conversation.
