"'The Last Legion' is a wonderful adventure/fantasy with great characters portrayed by actors who know how to grab our attention."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Betty Jo Tucker

B-
"Trust me, it's worth the price of admission to see Colin Firth, an actor of such steely emotional reserve, play butch for two hours in a Mike Brady perm."  eFilmCritic.com  Brian Orndorf

.5/4
"A depressing pageant of bad dialogue, uninspired sword fights, corny getaways, and loads of completely unintentional sexual innuendo."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

C
"I will at least smile as I recall its harmless idiocy, in much the same way that one smiles at retarded people one passes on the street."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

C
"An old-fashioned boys' adventure yarn...no great shakes as a fantasy epic...but there are far worse movies out there for young boys."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

2/4
"Firth is horribly miscast. I'll buy him as a romantic lead or the main character in a drama, but he's almost laughable as an action hero."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

"Once you accept The Last Legion for what it is, namely a Saturday adventure matinee show aimed at impressionable 10-year-old boys, then you'll have a passable time at the cinema . . . Sort of."  SA Movie & DVD Magazine  James O'Ehley

1/3
"De no ser por la presencia de Colin Firth, dudo mucho que pasase por las grandes pantallas antes de llenar estanterías de videoclub."  Off-Off-Critica  MalaBesta

"[B]ereft of anything approaching the movie magic it is clearly desperate to evoke..."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

2/4
"While the swashbuckling content is engaging enough on a popcorn level, the attempts at any sort of epic heft fall way short of the mark."  Mr. Brown's Movies  Michael Dequina

3/5
"While it's almost certainly guaranteed to be a box office bomb, I'm suspecting this goofy little adventure will earn a few bemused fans once it hits DVD."  Cinematical  Scott Weinberg

2/4
"A passably entertaining hodgepodge of sword-and-sandal film clichés and Arthurian romance."  Reel.com  Timothy Knight
