If you're the type of moviegoer who's always complaining that 'they sure don't make them like they used to,' take a gander at The Four Feathers to better understand why they don't. ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at San Francisco Examiner (Joe Leydon)
Four Feathers, The (2002) scores a combined 1.00 out of 4 stars for Reno Gazette-Journal (Forrest Hartman)Reno Gazette-Journal (Forrest Hartman)
The Four Feathers was meant to make bold statements on love, war and human nature. Instead, it takes two hours of our lives to remind that there’s nothing duller than a failed epic. ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at Reno Gazette-Journal (Forrest Hartman)
Four Feathers, The (2002) scores a combined 1.00 out of 4 stars for ToxicUniverse.com (Brandon Curtis)ToxicUniverse.com (Brandon Curtis)
The Four Feathers plays more like a children playing dress-up adventure than the period piece romantic war saga it so desperately thinks it is (and that it thinks you think it is). As a parody, perhaps The Four Feathers ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at ToxicUniverse.com (Brandon Curtis)

I've heard that some of the earlier versions of this film, which are based on a book, are quite good. I wouldn't know, I haven't seen any of them, but one thing is for sure, they couldn't be any worse. ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at Three Movie Buffs (Scott Nash)
Four Feathers, The (2002) scores a combined 1.00 out of 4 stars for AboutFilm.com (Dominic Varle)AboutFilm.com (Dominic Varle)
Surely not. The editing throughout the movie suggests that a hand other than Kapur's was at work in the post-production, eliminating Kapur's politicization. Without a meatier subtext, all we are left with is the bones of the story, the cheekbones of the ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at AboutFilm.com (Dominic Varle)

Four Feathers, The (2002) scores a combined 1.00 out of 4 stars for Nick's Flick Picks (Nick Davis)Nick's Flick Picks (Nick Davis)
And yet, if Kapur and Richardson have their sporadic successes, aestheticizing the dingy cultural mythologies of The Four Feathers is hardly a point of pride for the old résumé. And besides, basic cinematic vocabulary fails these artisans ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at Nick's Flick Picks (Nick Davis)

Four Feathers, The (2002) scores a combined 0.80 out of 4 stars for New York Times (Elvis Mitchell)New York Times (Elvis Mitchell)
The picture's wheezing fussiness and devotion to the British empire and its minor nods to questioning unthinking loyalty to an ideal make The Four Feathers a possible first of a kind: a movie that's halfhearted about ambivalence. ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at New York Times (Elvis Mitchell)

So, basically, "The Four Feathers" is awful. Well, not the worst film of the year, but pretty bad nonetheless. I wasn't expecting to be dazzled when I went to see this film, but I was at least expecting to be entertained. But, as The Rolling ...read the complete Four Feathers movie review at The Popkorn Junkie
