Film Journal International
Rating: 2.5/5 --
It is handsomely done and well-acted, but it lacks real energy or purpose.

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
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
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.

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.

Chicago Reader
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.
