Flesh+Blood hasn't lost any of its gruesome power.

Starburst
Delivers exactly what the title promises (and then some), as Dutch director Verhoeven spares no gory or raunchy details in his vigorous recreation of medieval Europe.

A more appalling view of the turmoil and misery of the late Middle Ages may never be seen.

TV Guide
It's hamstrung by leaden dialogue and the motley international cast - Python and the Grail are never that far away - but it's admirably unsentimental and by no means stupid.

Time Out
A vivid and muscular, if less than fully startling, account of lust, savagery, revenge, betrayal and assorted other dark doings in the Middle Ages.

...Vivid and muscular....Verhoeven has told his tale in visceral, involving fashion...
