What the Critics say | ||
| Cape Argus / The Star Theresa Smith  Thriller simply can't rise above its need to preach. | 10 |  |
| Die Burger Daniel Dercksen Storie verfrissend as speurverhaal vertel. | 15 |  |
| Cape Times Frank Scheck Biblical thriller holds back on the miracles. | 10 | |
| ScreenIt Jim Judy Whatever 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. | 11 |  |

| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Risen 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. | 11 | |
