What to Know

Critics Consensus

47 Ronin is a surprisingly dull fantasy adventure, one that leaves its talented international cast stranded within one dimensional roles.

Wesley Morris Grantland There's nothing pretty or exciting about this movie (inexplicably, it's in 3-D), even when all anyone's doing is fighting. Jan 3, 2014 Full Review Ben Sachs Chicago Reader The pacing is cloddish and tone unaccountably dour. Jan 3, 2014 Full Review Louis Black Austin Chronicle 47 Ronin is about magic, the fantastic, a witch, and CGI monsters that adorn a muddled and confused plot. Rated: 1/5 Jan 3, 2014 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Nothing short of a disgrace. Rated: 1/4 Aug 19, 2022 Full Review James Croot Stuff.co.nz Heavy on CGI, light on entertainment, 47 Ronin is a dreary and deathly dull tale that you will endure, rather than enjoy. Rated: 2/5 Apr 5, 2021 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Opening on Christmas Day, 47 Ronin obviously is an afterthought for Universal Pictures. Rated: 1.5/4.0 Sep 7, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Cynthia J This movie is such a great movie!!! I absolutely love it. It has great actors, Hiroyuki Sanada and Keanu Reeves in their first movie together! The acting, plot and scenery is awesome! It's a shame about the ratings. My family loved it so much that we bought it and revisit it yearly. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/16/24 Full Review Korra N Not nearly as bad as critics made it out to be but still far from great, 47 Ronin is a fairly standard samurai-action-fantasy film that's slightly elevated thanks to gorgeous visuals, a stellar musical score and a scene-stealing performance from Hiroyuki Sanada. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/09/24 Full Review Alan g Very boring fantasy added to a well known japanese story. Wooden acting. Incorrect history and rediculous costumes. Why is the shogun wearing a gold bucket on his head? Why is Keanu Reaves even in this movie? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/08/24 Full Review aaini a Love, emotions, courage, loyalty, adventure, action, u can find everything in this movie. Acting, direction, story everything is epic. One must give it a shot. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/24/24 Full Review AZURA C tại chị phù thủy keo quá nên t cho 2 sao chứ không là cho 0.5 sao rồi Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/24/24 Full Review Emilio M Very entertaining, but boring and favorite, it has many bad points, the reviews are bad, and it's true Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/14/24 Full Review Read all reviews
