- Synopsis
- Set in 1884 Sudan, this fifth film to be adapted from the A.E.W. Mason novel follows a British officer who resigns his post right before his regiment ships out to battle the rebels. Perceiving his resignation as cowardice, his friends and fiancée give him four white feathers, the symbol of cowardice, but little do they know he's actually going undercover and plans to redeem his honor.
- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Splendidly spectacular, intelligent and very well-acted."
-
"It's a pretty compelling yarn, not to mention full of pretty pictures, and yet it could be so much more than that."
-
"Ledger is a charismatic, conflicted hero (...) and Kapur makes the most of Africa's breathtaking desert, crafting a gorgeous spectacle"
-
"Still as moth-eaten as a Bengal tiger rug on the floor of a London men's club."
-
"It should have been an old-fashioned rouser, and sometimes it is (...) But Kapur weighs down the tale with bogus profundities"
-
"It looks good, it moves quickly and it is often a jolly good time (...) The less you know about the British Empire and human nature, the more you will like it"
-
"The bad news is that it's not a very good movie, with three fine performances and two great sequences."
-
"Pretty costumes, pretty soldiers, pretty battles; pretty silly"
