The dialogue is often stiff, the action and plotting unlikely, making the romance hard to swallow. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

03/27/2021 The historical story is true but the acting and telling of that story is just terrible. Maybe someday someone will tell this story without the soap opera hogwash. See more 03/25/2021 Help people understand what Greeks had to endure under Ottoman/Turkish occupation See more 05/31/2020 Beautiful movie! Could of done better if it wasn't limited on release. Very few select theaters, no dvd, no streaming! If more people can watch it, more people would enjoy it! See more 05/25/2020 I truly enjoyed this film. It graphically showed some of the brutality I've heard from many years as a child studying Greek language and culture, but featured well acted romance and tension by the main characters, as well as some excellent historic costume and settings/cinematography. I would go to see it again in theater or on the small screen, ecommend it to those who like See more 03/01/2020 Cliffs of freedom could’ve been a really good movie. On paper this movie sounds great and it could’ve been a great epic unfortunately the movie is just average. And that’s because of the movies budget. The movie has an excellent story but it’s hammered by cheap looking sets, stiff dialogue, some questionable acting, and pacing that could’ve been better. With a bigger budget and a better director I think this movie could’ve been really good. But as it is it feels more like a made for TV movie or direct to DVD movie then the big epic it was aiming for. See more 03/01/2020 Cliffs of freedom could’ve been a really good movie.
