Had it not been the first film shot in CinemaScope, very few people would probably still be talking about The Robe.

Stick with The Ten Commandments, or try watching Fellini Satyricon instead.
July 19, 2010
Important historically as the first CinemaScope feature film.
February 09, 2006
Turgid direction, probably not helped by a necessarily cautious approach to framing, is married to creaky dialogue and stiff performances to render this of purely historical interest.

Everything, including performances, is turned up to eleven, and what it lacks in finesse it more than makes up for in sheer spectacle.

It's hard to actively hate anything as deeply earnest as The Robe, but it is a long, tough sit.
January 11, 2008
Pious claptrap.
April 02, 2009
Insufferably wooden.
March 25, 2006
Tthe mightiness of masses and the forms of heroes have never loomed so large as they do in this studied demonstration, projected by CinemaScope. But an unwavering force of personal drama is missed in the size and the length of the show.
January 30, 2012
Overblown melodramatic biblical nonsense.
January 11, 2008
The performances are consistently good.
