The Body Reviews & Ratings

Average viewer score of 5.5/10 from 239 ratings.

6/10

Interesting concept, but an average script and direction. Banderas gives his all (and this movie is worth watching just for that) and Williams is strong as a Jewish archaeologist, but this doesn't hit the heights it aspires to.
