Androcles and the Lion Ratings & Reviews
Variety
Variety Staff
Bernard Shaw's satirical comedy on Romans and Christians provides the basis for a fair film offering. Picture is a curious mixture of basic comedy and Shavian wit.
TV Guide
A good adult story for kids, set in ancient Rome.
New York Times
Bosley Crowther
The intellectual content of the drama suffers from staging that is dull; the fantasy and drollery of it seem curiously clumsy and slow.
