An extraordinary, intoxicating movie. Its hard, twisted edges may turn off some, but there's no faulting either Aronofsky's technical mastery or Portman's flawless performance.

Dan Jolin

The Clash are the kind of garage band who should be returned to the garage immediately, preferably with the engine running.

The film is visually stunning, filled with more breathtaking shots than you can count: silently falling snow; clouds' moving shadows caressing a green mountainside; a bird singing on a single, bare branch; the cold white moon set against a midnight sky. It's pure poetry.

Michael O'Sullivan

A romp magnifique, with enough thrills, giggles and pretty pictures to reward adventure-lovers who wouldn't normally entertain the idea of taking in a treat with subtitles. Don't miss the mid-credits postscript.

Angie Errigo

It may be that “Your Highness,” a self-conscious, sometimes overly self-satisfied goof about ye olde high times, may be better enjoyed in an herb-enhanced condition. Getting stoned is, after all, a running joke in this comedy, which is as thin as rolling paper and just as ephemeral... Conjoined laughing and groaning is often the point when jokes are calibrated to go up (or down) with smoke.

Monohla Dargis

It's as realistic as a cotton-wool tiger riding a tractor through a teardrop.

Isaac Asimov
