William Tell

"'William Tell' can propel itself through anonymous palace intrigue fine enough, but it stumbles hardest in its efforts to probe the psychology and history of its protagonist via PTSD-induced flashbac" 

"I was completely captivated by a rousing new adventure William Tell (...) whatever the facts I have to say this is perfect movie material, reminiscent in spirit and execution of 1995’s Oscar-winning 'Braveheart'" 

"Hamm’s adaptation of the material is competent enough, offering all the striking shots of the Swiss Alps and extra-laden battle scenes that any historical epic connoisseur could ask for" 

"Nick Hamm’s film is big, brutal and beautiful – over the top at times and stirring at others (...) But it’s so handsomely mounted that it generally gets away with its excess, thanks in large measure to Bang" 

"It’s all sort of silly, but at least it knows what it is, and, in many ways, that’s liberating for everyone involved. (...) a high-end B-movie that would have been in heavy rotation on cable television’s TNT or USA Network as a wallpaper movie in the ’00s." 

"The film excels in its breathtaking landscapes and gritty battle sequences but struggles to find its tonal consistency. (...) 'William Tell' Suffers From Inconsistencies Between Character and Story (...) Rating: 6 (out of 10)" 

"But with its golden mountain vistas (...) and some sweeping 'Lord of the Rings' -like camerawork, 'Will Tell' does have a satisfying old-school sensibility (...) a movie that doesn’t loiter long in the mind (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
