 While this is visually pleasing it's unfortunately boring, over-acted and at times confusing fare. ... Was quite the hit in theatres, but mostly it just sucks (pun intended).  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)
The artistry in this film is magnificent. The film actually won oscars for Best Make-up, Best Costume and Best Design and Best Sound Effects. It is a real feast for the eyes!!!  --Savieri (Bloody-Disgusting.com)
