	Author	Review
United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"Fleischer brings absolutely no playfulness to what might, at least, have been enjoyably light. And he brings out the worst in a cast that was ill-chosen to begin with"	NEG
United States	Dave Kehr Chicago Reader	"It's a great-looking film, filled with wildly imaginative sets"	POS
United States	Gene Siskel Chicago Tribune	"'Red Sonja' is like a can of dog food covered by a label featuring a picture of a sirloin steak."	NEG
United States	Den of Geek	"Bad as it is, and predictable as it is, this is not a boring movie…even if for all the wrong reasons (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Joanna Berry Radio Times	"[An] adventure for those who like their action fast and furious, their dialogue ropey and their acting filled with more ham than a butcher's shop (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
