Village Voice
An engaging tale that doesn't reach the level of epic but should appeal to fans of wuxia action and majestic visuals all the same.

Rating: 3/5 --
The plot in the South Korean martial-arts period-piece Memories of the Sword may verge on the incomprehensible but, boy, is it gorgeous.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Lavish Korean historical epic has many things going for it, but a bewildering plot and an undeniable repetitiveness undermine its intent.

Film Journal International
It would all be eye-roll-inducing were it not for Ms. Jeon's striking poise and the luminous presence of Ms. Kim, an eager performer who imbues the film with energy.

These actors keep Memories of the Sword watchable and give us faith that we'll see them in better projects.

Not even A-list stars Jeon Do-yeon and Lee Byung-hun can save this plodding Korean martial-arts epic.
