Entertainment Reviews:
Bell is embodied, in a commanding and versatile performance, by Nicole Kidman, who supplies a gravitas and emotional complexity worthy of the woman she plays.
New York Times
Even the stodgiest biopic would be redeemed by Mr. Herzog's eye. The shots that track Bell into her meetings with Arab leaders may have you catching your breath.

New York Times
Herzog feels an obvious kinship with Bell’s independent spirit, a figure who broke the confines of her 'domesticated' upbringing so she could touch distant lands and discover herself.
Los Angeles Times
Bell was an extraordinary figure, tailor-made for a dazzling presence like Kidman, but Werner Herzog, directing his own script, unwisely structures Bell's story around her intimate relationships with men.

The result is a well-made invitation to nod off.

Chicago Sun-Times
[T]his collaboration with Kidman uses the actress’ poised and almost regal bearing to its advantage.
Variety
Rating: 2/5 --
Queen of the Desert has the note of a travelogue about it -- that is to say, it feels well-travelled, but not well-lived.
