Pauline Kael

A smashing kitsch entertainment.

TV Guide Magazine Staff (Not Credited)

It's a spectacular adventure story with romance, because while they fight with wild animals and cannibals, they fall in love. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

King Solomon's Mines has been filmed against an authentic African background, lending an extremely realistic air to the H. Rider Haggard classic novel of a dangerous safari and discovery of a legendary mine full of King Solomon's treasure. Read full review

Bosley Crowther

There is more than a trace of outright hokum in this thriller...but there is also an ample abundance of scenic novelty and beauty to compensate. Read full review
