Charleton Heston is the perfect mythic conflicted hero.

Laramie Movie Scope
[I]t's clear that the director relished working in 70mm and having such rich resources at his disposal. As a spectacle, it's muscular and more dynamic than most.

Rating: A- --
Starring Charlton Heston and Sophia Loren at their prime, Anthony Mann's grand historical epic is still much admired by viewers and directors.

Rating: 3/4 --
To say that El Cid is the most intelligent of the elephantine epics of the early '60s is to damn it with faint praise.

Slant Magazine
5 stars out of 5 -- There are obvious resonances with today's religious tensions, but this is a story of much more, and it is handled superbly.
