  • Empire (UK)

    Like all sieges, this offers moments of choppy terror and excitement followed by dull sit-it-out-and-starve spots. Straddled between uproarious schoolboy tosh and serious historical movie, this still offers enough dismemberments, royal tantrums and portcullis-rammings to make for a lively Saturday night out.

  • Guardian (UK)

    Historically accurate? It's not certain everyone involved is even on the same script. Full Review

  • Hollywood Reporter

    Medieval history lesson with lots of shattered bodies and splattered limbs. Full Review

  • Little White Lies (UK)

    After the first 10 minutes you just don’t care. Full Review

  • Total Film (UK)

    A ripping yarn capably told, this cinematic history lesson may not be wholly factually sound, but scores brownie points for unflinching brutality and ruthless realism. Full Review

  • Variety (USA)

    Ironclad might be the perfect actioner for gorehound fanboys gaga for medieval trappings, but all others may find this British-American-German co-production a bit of a drag. Full Review
