Passes the laugh test, easily.

Ian Freer

Empire Magazine

It doesn’t reach the heights of Horrible Histories — let alone Monty Python And The Holy Grail — but Seize Them! turns the Dark Ages into the daft ages, delivering a mostly entertaining, female-centred comedy enlivened by winning performances.

Rated: 3/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

The small-screen tone of the picture makes it feel like a duff episode of Horrible Histories, albeit with considerably more swearing.

Rated: 2/5

Loud and Clear Reviews

Regardless, it remains a great – and very fun – way of spending two hours in the cinema, especially with a few friends so you can laugh together at the jokes.

Rated: 3.5/5

Jack Martin

Film Feeder

A mediocre Medieval comedy that relies heavily on easy juvenile gags to disguise its noticeably cheap production, though it’s clear from the commitment of its cast and filmmakers that it just needed better resources to fully flesh itself out.

Rated: 2/5

Sarah Manvel

Critic's Notebook

If this had been less mean-spirited and more focused on the tactics women use to jockey for power and control it would have been a much stronger story. Unfortunately, by attempting to be all things to all people, this movie truly works for no one at all.
