Those worried about incurring God's wrath by seeing The Ten, don't concern yourselves -- by watching the film, you've suffered enough.

Thou shalt be funny. Thou, in this case, isn't.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
Rotten
Perhaps the Bible needs an 11th Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Bore. That might stem misfires such as The Ten.
Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle
