Movie Reviews of The Name of the Rose

Movie Review: Enjoyable
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the only film that I saw after having read the original book that did not disappoint me in its rendering. Though it cannot translate all the intricate levels of reading this book has (no film ever could ) it is a very good telling of the storyline and transports the viewer pretty much into the atmosphere of that medieval convent and the ambiance of the times. All in all a very good way to spend an evening

Movie Review: The Name of the Rose
Summary: 5 Stars

The DVD was very good, however the first time service with Amazon.com was not good. The DVD showed up 9 days after I ordered it. You may want to think of another service than USPS, this should not be happening.
I have a son in CA and I get regular mail in 3 days from him as I discussed twice with your customer service people.

Thank you,
Barbara Huss

Movie Review: An excellent movie
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one of my favorite movies. It has great productions values, a thought provoking plot, and an excellent cast.

The pacing for the movie is slow and deliberate. The historical setting is factually accurate and provides an most interesting view into the church.

And it is a great murder mystery.

One cannot ask for more from a movie.

Movie Review: Connery's Favorite
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw it written in an article that this was one of Sean Connery's favorite film. Shot in Italy during winter, he recalls it being very cold and having to wear lots of clothes under his robes. Excellent film, an early Sherlock Holmes format. I never tire of seeing it. Started listening to monks chanting, peaceful music.

Movie Review: Who wanted us to believe in what?
Summary: 5 Stars

Great cinematography allowes full inmersion in the part of history that is kept unknown: A monastery in the Middle Ages. A male world. They decided what we are going to believe nowadays. For 1000 years they wrote what we were suposed to read today. Umberto Eco's novel and the movie are very eye-opening.
