Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
Flawed, but still worthwhile film of the show.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: 2/5 --
If it weren't for Lost Horizon, this would have gone down in history as the Worst Musical of 1973.

Empire Magazine
Despite the 'impressive' desert locations and an array of tanks (to represent the ills of modern militarism), it's still staged like a student revue.

Time Out
Rating: 1.5/5 --
Surely a candidate for the worst stage-to-screen musical adaptation ever.

Alternate Ending
Rating: 3/5 --
Overall: Some good songs, some interesting choreography, and some utterly forgotten actors.

Ted Neeley is great but the film never rises to the material.

[A] rather tedious, if flamboyant affair.

Product Description:
An innovative example of modern techniques in moviemaking, this famous rock opera depicts the last week of Christ's life. Norman Jewison (MOONSTRUCK; IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT) directed this thrilling adaptation of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical, starring Ted Neeley as Jesus and Carl Anderson as Judas Iscariot. Among the classic songs in the film are "I Don't Know How to Love Him," "Hosanna," and "King Herod's Song (Try It and See)." The song score was nominated for an Academy Award.
