Sime Silverman Variety The Villa film was poorly directed in spots. A distinct titter ran through the house when Villa as he raced from his prison cell, after his unexpected liberation, stopped to consult with himself before the camera. Jul 18, 2020 Full Review Age Staff The Age (Australia) Though historically the pictorial story is open to doubt, its dramatic value is assured. Jul 18, 2020 Full Review Neil G. Caward Motography General Pancho Villa, Mexican leader, who has occupied columns and columns of space in newspapers, has been once more in the lime light, so that now of all times, seems the psychological moment in which to release [this film]. Jul 28, 2020 Full Review A. Danson Michell Motion Picture News The drama, The Life of General Villa, may or may not have any foundation or truth, but the fact remains that it makes very interesting entertainment. Jul 22, 2020 Full Review Trib Staff New York Tribune True, there are no close-up views of a man ramming a bayonet down another man's throat, such as one sees in the fiction war pictures, but there are scenes showing real fighting as It la done now. The films are an important achievement. Jul 18, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
