What the Critics say

Cape Argus / The Star
Theresa Smith quote iconThriller simply can't rise above its need to preach.

Die Burger
Daniel Dercksen quote iconStorie verfrissend as speurverhaal vertel.

Cape Times
Frank Scheck quote iconBiblical thriller holds back on the miracles.

ScreenIt
Jim Judy quote iconWhatever the reason, the end result is that the second half of Risen isn't as good as the first. Until then, however, it's interesting watching the combo of bits and elements from The Bible, X-Files and Logan's Run come together in an unlikely cinematic platter.

Tomatometer quote iconRisen benefits from a lighter tone than many faith-based productions, as well as a unique take on the Greatest Story Ever Told and a terrific turn from star Joseph Fiennes.
