"The dry film, more boring than it had a right to be, nevertheless was sincere and won an Oscar for Best Picture."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

"Political, religious and personal niceties of the period are streamlined, and the movie concentrates on the impressive steadfastness of Sir Thomas More."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Donald J. Levit

2.5/5
"Waiting for More's breaking point provides the only thread of suspense."  Film-Forward.com  Kent Turner

"It will not be for all tastes, but it is a fine film."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Mark R. Leeper

"A Man for All Seasons is a handsome production. In other words, it is staid, stern, plodding, and precise, with about as much passion as your 11th-grade history textbook."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

5/5
"This is an outstanding (and brilliantly filmed) study of a man who is faced with a harrowingly difficult moral choice."  Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies  Nell Minow

A+
