But is this 'Alamo' the definitive version? No, this is no History Channel presentation.
Kansas City Kansan
Thanks to the skills of director and co-screenwriter John Lee Hancock and a deep cast of reliable veterans, this is an authentic and rousing version of the most famous battle in Texas history.

Rating: 2/5 --
Sluggish, talky and unfocused, its downbeat revisionism robbing its historical figures of the iconic status that would have made their story worth retelling.

It's dull, talky, and sometimes maudlin.
Village Voice
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Not even good sets, plenty of historical detail, and Billy Bob Thornton can put life into director John Lee Hancock's slow-moving, poorly acted Texan saga.

Rating: 2/5 --
Com exceção das performances de Thornton e Quaid, o filme traz caracterizações estereotipadas e freqüentemente se entrega ao sentimentalismo barato.
Cinema em Cena
Rating: 2/5 --
Doesn't work despite Thornton's top performance.
