Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Clunk, clunk, squish. That is the sound of the dead language in Roland Joffe's screenplay for "There Be Dragons" as it tramples his would-be epic of the Spanish Civil War into an indigestible pulp.
Rotten: [A] florid, convoluted historical drama from writer-director Roland Joffe...
Rotten: The film's title, "There Be Dragons," is lifted from the way ancient maps warned of dangers to be found within uncharted territory. Joffe should have paid heed.
Rotten: A jigsaw of intimate relationships and betrayals during wartime with more than a few pieces missing.
