'Samson' is a Biblical epic worth watching.

Bible-based tale has bloody beatings, eye-gougings, more.

While it cannot be faulted for its sincerity, it can be faulted for its sluggish pacing, inconsistent performances and lack of cinematic style that gives the proceedings a tacky feel throughout.

Perhaps...I am being too hard on a pretty okay movie that will make a lot of viewers happy.

Aimed squarely at Christian audiences looking for inspirational family entertainment, Samson is a preachy and plodding drama that's light on excitement, action or any real sense of spirituality.

The movie's most interesting clashes aren't between Samson and the Philistine royals, but between Pure Flix's intent to create "clean" entertainment and the obvious bloodthirstiness of the source material.

The story of the biblical strong man from the Book of Judges is drably retold without a trace of style or showmanship, making Cecil B. DeMille's 1949 Samson and Delilah (which was pretty good already) look like a masterpiece of great art by comparison.

A sluggish biblical epic that might have been more bearable if it had a much higher campiness quotient.

The result is a film that tries hard but feels like a casual shrug of the shoulders.

Could have used a more charismatic Samson and more beguiling Delilah
February 16, 2018
A bargain-bin biblical epic that delivers the requisite mass-murder-by-ass-jaw as a cheapjack approximation of Zack Snyder-esque pomp, but is for the most part clinically dull.
