Absolutely the worst movie.

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I've watched it three years ago. The thing that I like pretty much is its capacity to give a sense of reality. I mean, you can get into the scenes, the history. The story of Lawrence always made curious me, how could he succeed to convince the tribes. The film makes it.*Turks are depicted as ignorant and barbaric. It could be acceptable if they make it based on the historical facts. However, I don't think the staff made a comprehensive research on that.

"Lawrence of Arabia" is either the greatest movie ever made, or the second greatest. The true power and scope has only been matched by few other films. It is a film that really does stand the test of time. In an age where special effect driven films are king(as much as i like those), it is great to watch a film where you truly see thousands of people charging a fort on horse, and camel, back. It's a long ride, but it is never boring. It is full of fantastic characters acted out by even better actors. Peter O'Toole should have won every acting award available to win. His performance is consistently ranked among the greatest in movie history. Omar Sharif and Claude Rains are also deserving of much praise. The music is extraordinary and captures each scene very well. The personal journey of Lawrence is fascinating as well. David Lean's direction is practically flawless and proved that he is still one of the best directors ever. All in all, David Lean's masterpiece is a timeless, must see movie that has not been diminished by time.

The best film every made! Astounding! The desert scenery is spectacular and Peter O'Toole's performance is amazing. A must see film, 10 out of 10!

Sound: Excellent orchestral score. 100/100 Narrative: Circular narrative, with heavy fictionalization of Auda abu Tiye and some of the battles; especially the battle of Aqaba. The story is still told well though. 80/100 Technical: Exquisitely shot, framed, and edited. Excellent use of montage and landscapes. 100/100 Acting/Character: All parts well done. O'Toole brings out Lawrence's eccentric behavior well. Alec Guinness' King Faisal gives us a dyed in the wool politician playing against experienced Machiavelli's 100/100 Did I like it: Yes, viewing this film on the big screen I felt like I could step out from my seat and into the scene. 100/100 Artistic merit: Historical films need more factual accuracy to draw their weight; but the overall craftsmanship keeps the films power. 95/100 Final score 95.8/100
