Reviews:
"…Colbert steamed up the screen….Enjoyably overstuffed…" -- Rating: B - 08/09/1996 Entertainment Weekly, p.68


"[T]he film's charm lies in its brazen 1930s quality, right from the gilded art-deco Egyptian settings and Travis Banton's nightclub-on-the-Nile costuming to the snap-an-crackle of wit that makes Colbert's Cleopatra as much feisty dame as femme fatale." - 10/01/2012 Sight and Sound
