Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The English are uniformly and broadly portrayed as villainous louts, and today's four-letter oaths sound laughably anachronistic.
– Jane Sumner,

rotten:
The Messenger is a mess, and probably an unholy one at that.
– David L. Beck,

rotten:
I've never left a Luc Besson movie not thinking that the guy has Froot Loops for brains.
– Charles Taylor,

rotten:
Both visually spectacular and staggeringly awful.
– Michael Wilmington,

1 Jan 2000
rotten:
