Reception

The film was generally badly received by critics. In a contemporary review in La Stampa, the film is praised for its visual appearance, especially its colors, sets, and mass scenes, but criticized for its cartoonish dialogues and an overly unconstrained screenplay.[2] Jeffrey Richards wrote: "Despite colourful costumes and sets and an action-packed finale, this was a stilted and one-dimensional affair [...] with a plethora of sub-plots".[3] TV Guide describes it as "one of those countless inferior-quality Italian biblical epics".[4]
