Alessandro Gassman, Ben Becker, Daniel Massey

A beautiful Philistine woman betrays a man whose strength can single-handedly defeat entire armies in this dramatization of the famous Bible story. A story of faith and conflicting loyalties.

    Hokey but not unenjoyable made for TV sword and sandal flick. The leads are too contemporary in their attitudes but there is a solid supporting cast lead by the always fine Diana Rigg and Paul Freeman. The sets and costumes are good if not completely accurate. One thing to watch ...( read more)out for, Dennis Hooper is completely miscast and his interpretation of the part is way off base.

    Looooooong! Almost three hours, but worth it. This movie was unrated, but it should be rated R. I have not seen such grusome violence as in this film. The sensual scenes were also some of the most erotic without even nudity. It was a fairly accurate portrayal of scripture, though...( read more) a few minor details were changed and much was added.

    This movie had potential, but fell through the cracks. To bad.

    Not as accurate as other TNT Bible stories, but still a decent well put together movie. Great cast as well, but it seemed as if Dennis' Hopper's head was to big for his body. Kind of fun to watch.
