Enemy at the Gates Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
After Enemy at the Gates teases us with the promise of something big, it's hard to be happy with a small-scale story.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Any flaws in execution pale against those moments when the film brings history to vital life.
USA Today
Mike Clark
The story hits and misses for more than two hours following its opening artillery bloodbath.
Detroit News
Susan Stark
Although it is not without flaw, Enemy at the Gates makes its point in compelling fashion.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Enemy at the Gates is a disappointment primarily because it seems so rich with possibilities.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Tense and violent WWII movie.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Large and ungainly, this World War II tale of a sniper duel that parallels the bloody battle for Stalingrad has an indisputable visual power, but it's nothing you'd want to have a conversation with--or, for that matter, about.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
There's never much risk of reality intruding--just a lot of histrionic James Horner music nd plenty of designer stubble on the soldiers' faces.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Peter Rainer
It's as if an obsessed movie nut had decided to collect every bad war-movie convention on one computer and program it to spit out a script.
Village Voice
Amy Taubin
Hackneyed material.
Slate
David Edelstein
The film, directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud, doesn't stint on mud, corpses, or rubble, but the focus is all screwed-up.
Seattle Times
John Zebrowski
The film is way too big for the story.
Newsday
John Anderson
Airplanes arrive as regularly as the groaners in Enemy at the Gates.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Can't easily be dismissed or forgotten.
Houston Chronicle
Louis B. Parks
Impressive visually, with great sets and a grim feel of massive tragedy.
CNN.com
Paul Tatara
An elaborate, character-driven World War II epic that gets the war right, but pretty much fumbles the characters.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
A tense and artful war film that works both as thrilling spectacle and as intimate drama.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
This movie may seem to some like little more than boys' war games. But director Annaud, who wrote this with Alain Godard, knows how to milk the suspense.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It's remarkable.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
If the love triangle is the weakest part of the movie, that is only because the rest of it is so strong.
