A widowed father grooms his son to be a killer in a sweeping drama set in fifth-century B.C. China. Full Review
Film Journal International
Jul 25, 2012
Rating: 2.5/5 -- It is handsomely done and well-acted, but it lacks real energy or purpose. Full Review
Los Angeles Times

Rating: 2.5/4 -- Chinese film fans will be intrigued by a shift to more human, less spectacle-based storytelling.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Jul 26, 2012
Rating: 2/5 -- Perhaps it's all that armor, or that even the estimable Mr. Wang seems exhausted by the film's dolorous themes, but it's tough to care about characters who spend most of their lives obsessing over the violent deaths of others.
New York Times
Jul 26, 2012
Rating: 3/4 -- It charges out of the gate in Indiana Jones style, employing so many plot twists that you may need a scorecard. Then after an hour or so, it settles into an intimate, character-driven drama, before its low-key yet thought-provoking finale. Full Review
San Francisco Chronicle

Chen Kaige (Farewell My Concubine) cowrote and directed, and his talent for psychological drama isn't really suited to this sort of broad, mythic storytelling. Full Review
Chicago Reader
Jul 26, 2012
Rating: 3/4 -- With its widescreen compositions and flame-illuminated interiors, "Sacrifice" is visually entrancing. Yet the movie is not just an exercise in style. Full Review
