"For Greater Glory" takes its cues from a bygone era of Technicolor Golden Age epics and delivers a sprawling political drama steeped in old-fashioned Hollywood romanticism.
June 22, 2018
If these events seem to fit a little too neatly into modern narrative, seem almost too ready-made for current controversies... a few minutes' worth of research confirms the essential truth of the story.
June 01, 2012
"For Greater Glory" is at times so heavy-handed that the movie itself seems at war. Unfortunately, the enemy is not just a repressive administration, but the audience.
June 23, 2012
The compelling archival footage, which literally made me gasp aloud, and the incredible, disturbing photos are amazing. Unfortunately, you'll see them only during the end credits of 'For Greater Glory.'

Despite enough good intentions to pave a four-lane highway, the ardently sincere but dramatically unfocused For Greater Glory plays like a multipart miniseries that has been hacked down to feature length.
November 21, 2018
Dean Wright's film confirms that there isn't a film that truly depicts the Revolution yet. [Full Review in Spanish]
June 01, 2012
As generic as the title, this historical drama spares no cliche in depicting Mexico's Cristero War of the late 1920.
August 11, 2017
For Greater Glory will move the audience and perhaps inspire them.
June 01, 2012
This historical drama about the little-known Cristero War in 1920s Mexico is more educational than involving.
October 18, 2013
For Greater Glory takes what should have been an involving, even shocking hidden part of history and turns it into a needless epic
June 01, 2012
It's the stuff of real life, and of high drama, but Dean Wright's directorial debut translates little of that latter quality to the screen.
June 01, 2012
The sometimes painfully sincere and slow-moving "For Greater Glory" clearly aspires to be inspirational, but history won't cooperate.
