Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
If you'll settle for gold-plated pageants, for muscular episodes and for graphic inducements to wolf-whistling, then "Samson and Delilah" is for you.

fresh:
Wonderfully chintzy and hokey Bible epic once described as the only film in which the hero had bigger tits than the heroine.

fresh:
Cecil B. DeMille has again dipped into the Bible for his material, made appropriately dramatic revisions in the original, and turned up with a DeMille-size smash.
