Movie Overview For King of Kings
The King of Kings is the Greatest Story Ever Told as only Cecil B. DeMille could tell it. In 1927, working with one of the biggest budgets in Hollywood history, DeMille spun the life and Passion of Christ into a silent-era blockbuster. Featuring text drawn directly from the Bible, a cast of thousands, and the great showmanâ€™s singular cinematic bag of tricks, The King of Kings is at once spectacular and deeply reverentâ€"part Gospel, part Technicolor epic. The Criterion Collection is proud to present this beloved film in a two-disc edition featuring both the 112-minute general-release version and the rarely seen 155-minute cut that premiered at the grand opening of Graumanâ€™s Chinese Theatre.

Review For King of Kings

Director Nicholas Ray makes few positive contributions.
-TIME Magazine

Director Nicholas Ray has brooded long and wisely upon the meaning of his meanings, has planted plenty of symbols along the path, yet avoided the banalities of religious calendar art.
Variety Staff-Variety

This is one of the most interesting screen versions of the Gospels.
Geoff Andrew-Time Out

Let us say the spirit is hinted but the projection of it is weak.
Bosley Crowther-New York Times

This quirky 'Scope biblical spectacular is a lot more thoughtful and interesting than most.
Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader

Many of the scenes (especially the ones centered on Pilate and John the Baptist) are as good as anything in the history of the Biblical epic.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy

And there are moments within King of Kings that are quite beautiful and striking , deliberately intended to stand out from the norm.
Rhett Bartlett-Dial M For Movies

Because the makers of King of Kings took a chance by casting heartthrob Jeffrey Hunter as Christ, this was quickly dubbed by industry wags I Was a Teenage Jesus. But the film is far better than that label would suggest.
Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing

Nicholas Ray's biblical epic, toward the end of his career, is an intelligent film that finds the right balance between exteriors and interiors, stunning vistas and compelling characters.
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com

Nicholas Ray's King of Kings is an extreme test of one's patience, a sluggish modernist power point presentation on the glorious influence of Jesus's greatest hits.
Glenn Heath Jr.-Slant Magazine

... whereas detractors dismissed the films as I Was a Teenage Jesus, it's more accurate to describe it as Rebel With a Cause.
Sean Axmaker-Seanax.com

Before receiving the Blu-ray edition for review, I hadn't seen the movie in almost fifty years, not since it first came out, and I hadn't remembered how very good it was. (Blu-ray Edition)
John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis

Although it may rely a little too heavily on spectacle, it features fine acting, direction, and photography. On Blu-ray it makes a splendid showing.
John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis

Jeffrey Hunter is less Saviour of the Christian faith and more anti-hero with many very human doubts and concerns.
David Parkinson-Empire Magazine

An epic of considerable scope, filled with broad vistas, yet there are enough intimate moments to give audience a chance to engage with the characters rather than just admire their pontificating.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide

A sweeping and at times stirring biblical epic.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews

Perfect for Easter TV.
