Critics' reviews

"It's not everyone cup of bloody tea, but an unapologetic genre treat for those willing to dive in"

The Playlist
"A story with few surprises. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Phelim O'Neill: The Guardian
"This muscular yet monotonous 'Kane' just isn't much fun."

Dennis Harvey: Variety
"'Solomon Kane' succeeds by embracing its identity as a straightforward genre exercise"t.

Mark Olsen: Los Angeles Times
"It's always raining or snowing or misting. This makes for a nice visual, but it also makes the scenes look interchangeable"

Mark Feeney: Boston Globe
"It may lack The Lord Of The Rings' majesty, but Robert E. Howard fans will lap it up."

David Hughes: Empire
